Join David Moore and Rossella Buono for a week of learning and rejuvenation in historic Assisi.
The course fee includes tuition, accommodation, breakfast and lunch.
The program includes sessions for anyone for anyone wishing to deepen the everyday application of the Alexander Technique. Beginners are welcomed, but additionally we will have a session specially developed for yoga instructors, movement teachers from a range of disciplines, and Alexander Technique teachers.
Under David Moore’s guidance, participants will explore new ways of working with both familiar and unfamiliar poses. With a lifetime of teaching experience in the Alexander Technique and yoga, David brings fresh, practical insights into how the Technique can enrich and transform yoga practice. He invites enquiry and exploration, drawing on themes from his highly regarded book Smart Yoga throughout the retreat.
David and Rossella take into account the wide variability in participants’ abilities and ranges of movement, using these differences as a springboard for examining how we can work intelligently and constructively with personal variability.

-
Applying the Alexander Technique for safe and effective exercise and yoga practice
