Alexander Technique With Marcus James

Marcus is such a phenomenally intuitive and kind counsellor. He helped me delve deeper without even realising, whilst offering continuous support throughout my sessions. Marcus’ techniques are stupendous, and he’s such a lovely and warm soul, whom has helped me to greater emotional health.

Marcus is a terrific teacher, I studied Alexander Technique with him for three years. I was most interested in its applications for musicians, and I have been able to let go of many of my tensions and unhelpful postures whilst playing as a result of my time with Marcus.

Marcus has brilliantly communicated the subtly of the technique and the very simple changes one can make so your body works as it is designed to. With great humour and patience he has helped me undo 70+ years of bad habits and my knees and walking vastly improved. I wish I'd tried it years ago!
