Alice Turner, Alexander Technique Teacher  Recensioni 

Alice delivered a beautiful Alexander Technique workshop for the team of creative therapists I am part of in a healthcare setting. She really helped open our eyes to this supportive modality. In one 90 minute session, she managed to convey the nature of the technique without complication, and to offer an individually tailored experience of it to each person in the group.
It was fascinating, and I notice that since taking part I am more aware of my body positioning, and the benefits of 'doing less' in the way I sit, which I am learning, helps my body to move more freely and with less tension. Thank you so much Alice!

I have had odd posture after the birth of my second child. I slipped a disc in my lower back and had numbness in my leg. Working with Alice has been the one thing that has made the most difference (having seen a chiropractor and physio). My numbness went in 4 days after she reached a breakthrough with me and the practice is something I am using everyday. I feel lighter when I walk and go upstairs and look back to my normal way of walking before babies. I really recommend people try this before things get to a point where pain stops you doing things- Alice is really approachable, calm and really listens to what you tell her. She is really invested in her work.

What Alice does is remarkable.

As a scientist I was quite sceptical about the Alexander Technique. I am pleased to say my scepticism was misplaced.

I admire the way my two year old grandson sits and stands effortlessly. He has a natural balance and poise that, probably, we all once had.

His creaky grandad, has spent far too long hunching forward at screens or lounging back on sofas, and would love to be more like his grandson.

Whilst Alice hasn’t turned me into a two-year-old, she has shown my body how to deal with gravity more efficiently. I walk, stand and sit more easily. And as an amateur musician, my body and my playing is more relaxed even after a long session.

Alice is extremely competent at what she does.

I started with Alice as I was starting to feel less mobile and, at aged 65, wanted to give myself the best chance of an active and vibrant future! I’m so grateful that I found her!
I had one session then immediately signed up for the ten session programme.
Alice is a remarkable teacher, and the difference I feel since working with her is huge. From general stiffness with back and knee pain I now feel lighter, more flexible and pain free.
This has resulted in me walking daily again and I’m back to doing yoga!
I’m also experiencing lightness and increased flexibility in my daily life and the usual stressors are affecting me less!
Alice has a gentle, informative and kind style of teaching that enabled me to feel relaxed and confident.

Alice is an excellent and intuitive teacher. As soon as she puts her hands on me I feel a sense of calm and expansion as if I am being seen, heard and 'safeguarded' by her hands. I've been really enjoying this experiential way of learning and after only 3 lessons my body already feels different: more at ease; less back, neck and shoulder pain; more freedom of movement and just more IN my body.
I'm really enjoying the process and looking forward to experience more progress each week.
I really recommend trying a session, especially if you are dealing with chronic pain from your every day life!

Wasn't sure what to expect, but after a few sessions of AT I felt much more aware of the importance of my posture in maintaining a healthy mind and body. After each session I felt more relaxed and mobile. Alice has a calming, professional approach. I strongly recommend her!

I had a fabulous series of treatments with Alice while I was in London, after which I felt very relaxed and loose and my back was much more comfortable.
Alice is highly dedicated, has a great manner and gave me an insight into how the AT can help on a daily basis. Certainly recommended!

As a fellow Alexander Technique teacher, I find Alice to have a really thoughtful, perceptive and skilled approach. Alice's hands are quiet, clear and non-doing, and impart a sense of non-judgement and safety. We explored the connection between the lifting of the chest and its impact on breathing and the lower back which I found extremely useful. I would highly recommend Alice.

I had heard about the Alexander Technique (AT) but wasn't really sure what to expect. Alice explained it to me in a down to earth and easy to understand way. AT has shown me something new about where I am tense and I now have a new technique for freeing up a painful frozen shoulder and other niggles. My frozen shoulder hasn't been cured but Alice has most definitely helped me. Thank you Alice, I will certainly recommend you.

Several years ago I nearly lost my left foot in a serious accident. The surgeons saved the foot but it is not squarely attached to the leg, which affected my walking gait. Over the years the irregular gait meant that I started to feel pain in the knee and hip which prevented me from enjoying walking and also sleeping on my left-hand side. Alice worked on my general posture, which she quickly managed to reset. Because my proper posture has been restored I have recovered my natural gait and the knee and hip pain have reduced significantly. I am now enjoying long walks and can sleep on my left-hand side again. I strongly recommend Alice to anyone suffering from chronic pain that prevents them from enjoying life to the full.

As a rock climber of over 50 years, and now in my mid sixties, I have become used to having to put up with the aches, pains and tightness which inevitably follows any session in the mountains. So it was with some anticipation that I arrived for my first session of the Alexander Technique with Alice. We started by reviewing my posture and mobility when raising myself and sitting back down into a chair. Having done this a number of times in my life I wasn’t sure that I could learn much more about this! However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that after just a short period of analysis and advice I was performing this action much more smoothly and with less effort, both from a point of view of posture and in utilising my muscles to greater effect. Alice then moved on to work on my shoulders which are a particular problem for me. Again, by careful examination, manipulation and advice, Alice was able to improve the mobility, reduce the tightness and lower the pain within and around the joint. Throughout each session the atmosphere was tranquil, and I always felt very relaxed. Overall the process felt like a combination of physiotherapy and mindfulness! Alice has a welcoming, friendly and professional manner; I would strongly recommend her.

I really enjoy working with Alice. She works with great attention to detail, enabling me to really slow down and reconnect with the innate wisdom of my body.

Alice is professional and caring. She put me at ease instantly, explaining what the Alexander Technique is simply and concisely. I felt very relaxed and pain free after my treatments. I have recommended her to all my friends and colleagues.
