Alexander Technique Workshops for Organisations & Groups

Alexander Technique workshops offer a practical and engaging introduction to how we use our bodies in everyday activities — including sitting, standing, moving, working, performing, and managing stress.

Workshops are tailored for the needs of your group and combine short explanations, demonstrations, and simple guided activities that participants can apply immediately in their daily lives.

They are suitable for a wide range of groups, including:

  • Workplaces and professional teams

  • Community organisations and clubs

  • Music and performing arts groups

  • Sporting groups and athletes

  • Health and wellbeing programs

  • Aged care services and senior groups

  • Education and professional development settings

Participants learn practical ways to reduce unnecessary tension, improve posture and movement, and support long-term wellbeing.

For individuals who would like more personalised learning, workshops can be complemented by private Alexander Technique lessons or ongoing group classes, where participants can explore the work in greater depth over time.

Common Workshop Topics

Workshops are designed around the needs of your organisation or group.

Common areas of focus include:

  • Managing back, neck, or shoulder discomfort

  • Ergonomics beyond equipment and workstation setup

  • Reducing stress and physical tension

  • Sustainable desk habits and posture

  • Balance, mobility and confidence in movement

  • Performance and recovery for musicians and athletes

  • Preventing strain and overuse injuries

Many workplace sessions connect with my work in workplace wellbeing and ergonomics, which looks beyond equipment and posture advice to how we coordinate ourselves in everyday activities.

Workshop Formats

Workshops can be delivered in a range of formats, including:

  • 60–90 minute introductory sessions

  • Half-day or full-day workshops

  • Professional development sessions

  • Conference or event presentations

  • Ongoing workshop series

Sessions are typically delivered in person in Melbourne, with online options available where appropriate.

For ongoing skill development, participants often continue their learning through private lessons or group Alexander Technique classes.
