For sensitive folks who want to claim more space, be more expressive, relieve pain
and have a life affirming relationship with your body through joyful movement.
Hi, I’m Clare Maxwell!
I was a professional dancer. I learned the hard way that pushing yourself beyond the breaking point does not create success. In fact, mental and physical overwork prevent you from achieving your creative dreams. It almost ended my career, and I don't want that to happen to you! I was lucky that the Alexander Technique saved my broken body and spirit, extended my performing life for many years, and became the cornerstone of all my teaching.
I love working with people who are determined to have a vibrant, life affirming relationship with their body, even when facing big professional or physical challenges. I love discovering the hidden resilience that is present in every body I've ever worked with.
Don't give up yet if this is you.
If you can relate to my story, I want you to know you are more resilient than you think!

Testimonials
"Clare Maxwell is an amazing Alexander Technique teacher! I had horrible back pain from hours of sitting while narrating, but because of the work I did with Clare I have so much more strength and mobility now without pain. I have done ridiculous things in the past year that would have wrecked my back in the past. I recommend her highly!"
- Kitty Hendrix, award winning actress and audio narrator
“Thanks for what you are offering here on YouTube. I’ve studied Alexander Technique off and on for many years. Just watching your video was more effective than the four teachers I’ve experienced since 1992!”
– Cate Frazier-Neely, vocal teacher
“You can get away from pain and stiffness automatically, without trying. Every time I tune into one of those Mobile Body Alignment Points™, it generates energy and I want to move. It’s crazy! It’s like wait – how did I get out of that pain?”
- Susan Arthur, Alexander Technique teacher
"I am currently in one of Clare's Mastermind for Alexander Technique teacher groups and it is so valuable. Clare creates a sense of trust and communal support. She keeps us somatically grounded as we work on our business building so that we aren't just talking the talk, we are actually walking the walk."
- Amanda Blair McDonald, M.AmSAT, rMPA, MFA
“Clare helped me live pain-free in my body. She has become a godsend to my whole family. "
- Sarah Spieldenner
