If you haven't had a lesson before, start with a one-hour Consultation Lesson. This gives you an experience of what it's all about and the opportunity to discuss your needs and expectations. After this you can decide whether to go ahead with more.
Length of lessons
Lessons can be 60, 45 or 30 minutes: prices below. Book your first session – then, if you decide to continue with a course, we will adjust the length to suit you.

Introductory and/or one hour lesson: £55
Standard 45 minute lesson: £45

What to expect in a lesson
Please wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move around easily.
Normally, for part of an individual lesson you lie down while I work on you gently with my hands. I may move your legs, head and other parts of your body - but this is always done carefully, using skills acquired through my Alexander Technique training and practice.
The other practical part of most lessons works with sitting, standing, walking and other movements. However, in the first lesson the variety of practical work may be reduced, as time is needed to explain the Technique and to identify how it will be most helpful to you.
'Holiday' lessons
The Lake District is beautiful and a popular place for holidays, so if you would like to combine lessons with a stay in the area, please contact me to discuss having one or more lessons while you are here.
Groups
While the most important work usually happens one-to-one, learning in a small group can be fun, motivational and supportive. When it's available, some people find a combination of group and individual lessons is ideal.
If you are part of a group, organisation or community within travel distance of Ambleside, it may be possible to arrange an introductory workshop for you at your own location. For further details please enquire at janet@alexanderinambleside.co.uk or 07962 665964.
