Pop-Up Community Clinics

email lyra@atpdx.org if you’re interested in clinic lessons

Community clinic lessons are shorter private lessons designed to be a more affordable and accessible way to access the work. They are perfect for those wanting to continue exploring Alexander Technique or those wanting to experience the work for the first time.

WHAT

Alexander Technique is the hands-on study of habits, awareness and choice. It uses touch and direction to identify patterns that are no longer serving us, dismantle them if we choose, and access innate ease, balance, comfort, efficiency, and brilliance. Learn more here.

WHO

Me: I’m an artist and teacher and have been studying Alexander Technique for more than two decades. I came to the work after a spine injury left me severely incapacitated and stayed because along with relieving my pain, it allowed me to have a more delicious experience of being alive (and it turns out I really like teaching). I use she/her pronouns.

You: You may want less of something (chronic pain, trauma) or more of something (professional skill, presence, artistry). More than fixing things, you want to learn tools to create change and choice in the quality of your life.
