My Bone-Art class is back! In 2017, I debuted my unique embodiment and mindfulness practice of drawing the bones with the awareness of the Alexander Technique principles -- It was a success!
It's nine weeks, on Wednesdays, sprinkled through the fall, two time offerings: 3pm and 6pm.

"They won't try and get out of the chair unless they feel they have that something that will get them out of the chair! That something is their habit". - F.M. Alexander
In the process of the lessons, you see how your physical habits and pains are tied to your thinking and visa-versa. We re-map the body to the mind, so your kinesthesia is renewed to this present moment, now, letting go of old pains and outdated thoughts and perceptions. The result is an ever increasing easeful and erect posture and open mind.
A whole new world opens up to you!
