I originally trained as a nurse. When I developed arthritis of the spine (Ankylosing Spondylitis) and found that conventional medicine could not help, I discovered the Alexander Technique as a way to successfully manage my own condition.
I have now been teaching for over 30 years, including teaching at Alexander Teacher Training School, BUPA Hospital Harpenden, (now Spire), Harpenden Further Education College as well as my own teaching practice in Hertfordshire.
Here are some of the testimonials I have received from the medical profession and pupils
As Alexander teachers, our work lies in the domain of Health Education. We are not therapists but specialised teachers who can happily and effectively work alongside alternative therapies as well as conventional medicine.
We are not trained to cure the ‘crisis’ but to address the habits that lead to that crisis.
To find out whether your situation could be helped by the Alexander Technique, contact Sue Cheek for a chat.
