I’ve been asked once again to teach at the European String Teachers Association summer course in 2021. It’ll be held at the University of Chichester from 8-13 August.

My series of workshops is entitled Wake up to Natural Movement, and that’s not just because it’s the first slot after breakfast!

Underlying everything we do is the potential for natural movement. Stray from natural movement and our actions get harder, more tense. Approach it, and movement becomes easier and free-flowing.

I’ll be introducing these principles for natural movement in a very practical way so that participants can really ‘get’ them in the body. They’re based not only on the Alexander Technique but also the discoveries of the great string playing pedagogues as evidenced in the treatises they’ve written.

The week is going to be a great journey of discovery for everyone – myself included!
