Description

An Alexander Technique Workshop
with rj fleck and Esther Cieri

"A proven method to reduce anxiety and move with less pain and discomfort"

Do you sometimes find yourself falling into the patterns of behaviour and movement that you could do without? Is the effort of what you are trying to achieve getting in the way? What if you could do less and actually accomplish more?

Sometimes, we're so busy trying to make something happen that we interfere with our natural abilities to coordinate ourselves with grace and ease. This workshop will help you acquire and develop tools to break free from self-defeating habits and make room for new ways of effectively engaging with and being in the world.


Improve your freedom of movement, expressiveness and confidence
Move with less strain and effort
Overcome Anxiety and Self Consciousness
Decrease Tension and Stress
Prevent and Rehabilitate Injury


In the morning, we will present and experiment with fundamental
principles of the Alexander Technique, exploring how they can help you
rediscover your inherent ability to move well. We will learn how to
replace problematic habitual patterns of movement and thinking with
options for more constructive coordination.

In the afternoon, we will have the opportunity break into smaller groups and apply the
morning's materials to specific activities and situations.


rj fleck

rj fleck is an experienced pianist, composer and musician, with advanced degrees in music and digital electronics. He is also certified to teach the Alexander Technique, Pilates and Yoga and extends himself into Tai Chi and Contemplative Practice. His approach is to help the student engage with the activities of life with ease and freedom, in a manner which is sustainable and non-injurious.

Esther Cieri

Esther Cieri began her career as a movement educator in her late teens teaching ballet and creative dance. She is certified to teach the Alexander Technique, Pilates and Yoga. Her approach is to facilitate healing by creating a safe space for you to uncover your own wisdom and awareness about how to move through the world with more ease, resiliency and simplicity. She specializes in injury rehabilitation and prevention, workplace wellness and assisting artists and performers optimize their potential.



The Alexander Technique is a practical method of achieving an increased level of awareness and conscious direction of the use of ourselves in activities. If you would like to improve your ability to move through your daily activities with less effort, stress and strain; if you would like to approach your life experience with more lightness and grace, this workshop is for you.


All are welcome:
this workshop is for everybody
who moves, lives and does.
