The Alexander Technique and Moblignment™ are both methods of self-awareness that enliven deep, ongoing postural support with fluidity and ease! The complete system of Moblignment™ points activates each sequential segment of the central nervous system starting from head to toe, assuring a whole-body activation and awareness. Enrollment limited to 6 students.

This six-session online workshop explores:

  • The core principles of the Alexander Technique and Moblignment™
  • How to pay attention with more ease and self-kindness and less judgement.
  • The Moblignment™ points and how to use them while playing and teaching to enliven awareness, ease, confidence and further possibility and discovery.

The workshop includes:

  • Activities between group sessions to facilitate learning.
  • 1 Individual lesson (30-minute Individual lesson)
