Testimonials
I am currently in one of Clare Maxwell's mastermind 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!

Clare Maxwell has given me a completely new perspective on my teaching and my business. Now I can start thinking about who I am, why I'm doing this, and what I have to give. It's totally changed how I market my business.

Clare Maxwell is knowledgeable and skilled at guiding you through the process of understanding what is important to you, which direction you want to go in growing a sustainable business, and exactly how to do that while staying embodied.
Mari Hodges
Certified Teacher of the Alexander Technique, Therapeutic Pain Specialist, M.AmSAT
Turns out that, yes there is much I can be actively doing, and my intuition has a good grasp of equations and balancing! The vicious message of "you are c..p at money " really isn't true. I just have to pull my dreams towards me in a consistent way. Thank you for helping me to step across a resistant threshold to take another look. You are rather like battery charger at my back!

I've been a member for over a year now and I always look forward to the mastermind group meetings. It's a meaningful space to be unapologetically ourselves as we build our businesses. The small group trainings have helped me stabilize my income and create processes for growth. I so appreciate the community and Clare’s thoughtful and gentle leadership.

I have built a profitable and sustainable business. If I can, believe me, you can too! The Alexander Technique is famously difficult to "sell."
If you are:
- A licensed psychotherapist or holistic practitioner
- A Somatic Therapist or Educator
- An Alexander Technique teacher
- A Feldenkrais Practitioner
- A Yoga, Pilates, or Fitness Instructor with a somatic lens
- More than one of the above working on the innovative frontier...
The Embodied Learning Systems Mastermind can help you:
- Increase your income by clarifying your mission
- Clarify your mission in community and conversation with like minded people instead of alone in your office tearing your hair out
- Align your personal development with your business development
- Create an authentic public presence that makes marketing feel good
- Create a marketing strategy and plan that brings in clients you adore
Maybe you’ve run into these blocks:
You don't come from wealth or a business background so you don't know business & finance fundamentals. Thankfully, creating and stewarding wealth can be learned.
Business coaching systems haven't worked for you in the past because they don't apply directly enough to the unique challenges of being an holistic practitioner or embodiment professional.
You haven't found a safe, private, non-competitive place to be honest about your business challenges, and without being honest you can't get the help you need.
You have many beautiful ideas for projects that could take your business to the next level - too many! You can't choose one to focus on, so you do them all and get overwhelmed.
You want authentic online visibility but it's terrifying. Your sensitivity as a practitioner makes you really good at what you do, but also means visibility is a big challenge.
You know you need to be surrounded by others with a positive, uplifting vibe who will lovingly challenge you to move through your fears and limitations.
Many brilliant practitioners I know give up too soon when their first attempts fall flat or feel crappy and inauthentic. Others do get a profitable business off the ground, but slowly it becomes too large, too unwieldy, and too costly to run.
You may find it hard to believe, at this point in your career, that there is an easier way. I certainly did.
Now, I'm blessed to be doing the work I love full-time without getting overwhelmed or stressed out. It wasn't about working hard, it was about working smart.
There are simple building blocks foundational to every business, just as there are fundamental embodiment skills that can be layered over time to create a very sophisticated embodiment professional.
Those building blocks do not require you to fake it, manipulate anyone, violate your own ethics, or burn out.
They are all contained within the structure of a business plan. I've identified the key elements that need to be learned and applied; in our group, we work through them step by step, calmed and grounded by embodiment meditations. The state of openness and flow we establish together helps you move through past emotional, cultural, and cognitive barriers that prevent you from making decisions and moving forward.
We meet twice monthly. One meeting is a focused session on the building blocks of your business plan, and the second meeting is an open problem solving session where you can target specific issues that you are dealing with in your business right now.
You are guided to integrate my foundational business development curriculum with your business as it is growing in real time, at a sustainable pace.
I come to meet you where you are - you don't have to bend yourself into a pretzel to meet me.
One private session with me per quarter gives you extra support and a super safe space to deal with the challenges you face. All of that is included in the monthly fee.
You need support in three key areas:
You have individual gifts and insights that have emerged from your training and the roots of the modalities you use. You don't need to be better at what you do.
You do need to know what your special gifts and talents are so that you can shamelessly express them to potential clients. You do need to know what those folks are looking for - and chances are, it's not your modality.
Foundational business skills give you the structure you need to communicate how your work helps the world in a way that earns money, so you can have a bigger impact and make a good living.
Many of us don't come from abundance. We let other people define it for us and end up feeling less than. If we get clear about our own financial reality and needs, we step into our power, create our own definition of success, and feel it in our bones.
It's nearly impossible to do any of this if you are working in isolation. We simply can't see our own work and gifts clearly enough, but they are often totally obvious to others.
That's why, when you have a small group of committed individuals with a common passion moving together toward their goals, everyone grows three times as fast.
Members of my first three Mastermind groups are finding clarity and success right now, even though we just went through a pandemic. One of them just published his first book!
You can do this!
This is what you'll get in the Mastermind Group:
1. Two group meetings per month, one 90 minute meeting for problem solving whats going on in your business right now today; and one 60 minute meeting focused on building a step-by-step business plan that will become your foundational guide to growing a more profitable business for years to come.
2. One private session with Clare per quarter to dive deeper into core areas and strategies for success.
3. A business plan with specific values and goals for that functions like a compass for all your business building actions. You will create an authentic mission statement, core values, niche/audience, product/service, research product/market fit, build marketing strategy & marketing plans, financial projections, growth and development plans, pricing and sales models..all of it. It all matters!
4. A private FB page for weekly action accountability, and for sharing resources, struggles, & victories with the larger ELS community. Let us cheer you on.
5. 24/7 email support from Clare.
6. Optional homework assignments to help you master elements of the business plan that are new for you.
There are fundamental steps to business success, and you shouldn’t have to pay thousands of dollars to get access to them. If you have already tried the solo way of learning all this stuff, and it hasn't gotten you to where you want to be - please join us.

Why work with Clare?
I am a dancer, choreographer, and nationally certified Alexander Technique teacher who transferred my successful practice online during COVID – something most folks thought could never be done! I created Mobile Body Alignment™ over a period of 5 years, experimenting in the online space until I came up with a method that I knew would really work based on experience.
I was able to do that because I've worked extensively with wonderful business mentors like Jeremy Chance, Mark Silver, Jason Stein, and Paul Zelizer.
I am certified as a teacher through AmSAT and ISMETA. I've been teaching the Alexander Technique for 23 years, and I love leading people on learning journeys into their bodies for healing and lifelong mobility.
My work, Mobile Body Alignment™, combines my 30 years as a professional dancer with the A.T. principles, making them easier to teach and share with all, even online. I also lead Mastermind Groups for innovative embodiment educators who want to build a financially thriving and stable business.
I love the magical space of live theater and have coached professional actors and dancers in many NYC productions, most recently What To Send Up When It Goes Down. I will continue to develop my teaching in collaboration with my colleagues in the The Experimenters Union Learning Community which was created with generous funds from the Appalachian Springs Foundation.
