Open Weekly Online Classes

There are three open classes every week; two are open to all, one is for trauma focused therapists. Scroll down for descriptions and to register.
Alexander Technique for Trauma Therapists

Every Monday 10:30 - 11:30 am ET, starts October 5

Therapists I work with notice that trauma protocols they use become easier and more effective when they use the AT principles for themselves as therapists.

The AT begins with sensing one’s own body before directing another person to sense their body.

We start with a gentle "lie-down" where you learn the principles of the AT and apply them to simple, basic movements. The middle of class is inspired by participants questions and challenges. We end class with facilitated reflection and sharing.

All kinds of therapists are welcome!

 

Mobile Body Alignment Dance Class

Every Tuesday 9:30 - 10:45 am ET

Move and feel like a dancer without having to study for years and years.

How we pay attention to our body has a huge effect on our felt experience. Narrow attention creates a tight body. Fluid and mobile attention creates an easy body.

Activate effortless and fluid motion through awareness of 19 specific, easy to locate anatomical points on your body. This fluidity you learn in class, becomes available in all movement forms you practice.

Dance class is open to all.

Cranial Nerve Sequencing

Every Thursday 11am - 12pm ET

Moving meditation on the 12 cranial nerves. In each class you will learn practices, anatomy and physiology for a few nerves and their sense organ.

You will slowly build up your practice repertoire to sequence through all twelve nerves from memory.

Rebalance excitement with calm, improve breathing patterns, and revitalize your posture by relinquishing excess tension nerve by nerve. Enhance and refine sensory appreciation and motor control.

Moving meditation is open to all.

This group is forming at the request of a small group of DBR therapists who noticed that DBR becomes easier and more effective when they use the AT principles for themselves. 

The Alexander Technique is not something “done to” a client. It is something done within the therapists own body-mind that affects your behavior, tempo, and manner of speech. Come find out what it's all about and have fascinating embodied conversations with like minded therapists!

Mobile Body Alignment™ and Cranial Nerve Sequencing™ are for you.

They are designed to:

“Thank you for the Mobile Body Alignment™ webinar! It was quite helpful — & I’ve reported to our Open Source Forms faculty about all the insights gained...confirming what we too have been discovering.

I also appreciate you and how you have found freedom amidst the constraints of a specific practice - The Alexander Technique. We also strive to continually respect & empower participants in their autonomy & their own process.

You’ve discovered how to remain open to others’ insights & wisdom while imparting your own.”

- Stephanie Skura

What People Say About MBA™

“I can easily use MBA™ in any teaching situation - even online. It's given me confidence and I trust my sense of ease more. MBA™ invites full participation from students and I love that! They don’t become serious and fixed about paying attention to themselves. They come to conclusions on their own, naturally, without me having to point things out."

 

Katie Fittipaldi
Cellist, Music Teacher, Alexander + MBA™ Teacher

"I love when you invited us to let the 'stupid brain' be in charge. It gave me massive permission to move. I’ve been doing a great job in the alignment department, but the mobile part is a little stuck! To have the freedom to move without analyzing or observing gave me joy!"

 

Eleni Vosniadou
Musician & Alexander Technique Teacher

“Thank you for being part of 2020 Mazen & Izabella Smooth Camp 💕 everyone loved your MBA™ classes and private coaching! 👏♥️ "

 

Isabella Jundzill

“Clare Maxwell’s brilliance is a combination of deep intellectual rigor and accessibility. She explains complex anatomical points in an easily understood style that conveys not only practical and useful knowledge, but also her joy over the process of self-discovery. She uses simple language and an easily applied awareness to dramatically shift the way one's body moves. I accessed ease of movement and grace so quickly… and had such a good time!”
