Train to be an Alexander Technique Teacher

A rigorous, complete Alexander Technique training that fits your schedule and meets your goals.

Alexander Technique is about opening your mind and body to the world around you. It is a deep and rigorous practice, with a focus on healthy posture, tension release, an alert and open state of attention, and support and freedom in movement.  Our teacher training program teaches you to both embody this practice and to share it with others.

Alexander technique can be taught in many different ways, including one-on-one hands on lessons, online lessons, group classes, or as an integrated feature to other individual lessons such as singing, presenting, yoga, sports, or meditation. We’ve created a flexible teacher training structure that let’s you create a program that meets your goals for communicating AT to others.

Program Structrue

We custom design training programs based on a combination of mentorship and small group classes.  In other words, we create a program suited to each student’s goals and needs.

Your goals

  • Do you want to become a fully certified hands-on teacher for one-on-one lessons?
  • Do you want to give online one-on-one lessons and group classes?
  • Do you want to apply Alexander technique to other specialties of yours, such as public speaking, sports, music, acting, etc?
  • Do you just want to take your own practice to a deeper level?

Any or all of these are possible.

Your needs

  • Can you only meet at certain times of the week?
  • Are you in or near Amsterdam or do you need to train exclusively online?
  • Do you have a specific time frame you want to learn in?

We intentionally created this program to be highly flexible and highly rigorous.

Certification

Graduates may choose to become officially certified via one of the main international Alexander Technique professional organizations.  This involves rigorous assessment of practical skills (both embodied and applied) and theoretical knowledge by independent master teachers via live and/or online observations.
