How does a typical lesson work?

A certified Alexander Technique teacher uses a gentle touch to observe and guide you as you move in and out of a chair, walk about the room, and lie down on a table. Since we are often tightening more than necessary, students usually experience a pleasurable feeling of lightness and ease after a lesson when they are no longer holding onto all of the extra effort. The discoveries made in these simple explorations guide the next steps towards more strenuous or complex tasks and goals.

You can learn the Alexander Technique through private lessons, group classes, and guided explorations. Private lessons are the best way to get immediate feedback on your habits, but group classes and online content are a great way to supplement your practice.

Testimonials

  • "Serena exudes an admirable quality of focus and lightness in her practice. She brings me into the process of change through the experience of small but meaningful adjustments in how I stand, how I walk, how I move, and where I can learn to let go of habits of tension that get in my way.”

    Genia Gould, Alexander Technique Teacher in Training

  • "Serena's generosity, clarity, and direction as a teacher of Alexander and mindfulness coach has been a tremendous gift during a year of personal and professional transition. Her ability to notice what's new and what's changing in my body each session and to reflect those things back to me has allowed me to further deepen and expand my personal Alexander practice. She's also so much fun to work with, making seemingly complicated concepts into easily approachable and applicable somatic experiences."

    Marianna Gailus, Actor

  • “I started taking weekly lessons with Serena after a serious ankle injury in 2021. Serena brings her personal enthusiasm and dedication to the Alexander Technique to her lessons and it continues to help me work through my various injuries and health struggles. I look forward to the feeling of physical freedom a lesson with Serena gives me after a long day of work.”

    Andrea Pitch, Art Conservator

  • Working with Serena has been exceptionally helpful in increasing my sense of bodily awareness, especially as someone who spends long hours at a desk, where stress and posture habits were draining my energy and hurting my body. What I appreciate most is that Serena doesn’t “correct” or try to fix you, but instead, gently guides you to bring awareness to your patterns and invites you to let go of unnecessary effort. The subtle shifts I experienced while working with Serena have made a big impact on how I move and breathe! I’d highly recommend working with Serena to anyone looking to build a deeper practice of awareness. Her kind, gentle approach and thoughtful reminders have been truly transformative!
