One-on-one coaching in Alexander Technique is being made available as an add-on to Music Conference Alberta delegates. Coaching sessions are offered at a rate of $75 per 30-minute session. Sessions will take place throughout the conference schedule, and delegates select their coaching time when signing up.
Alexander Technique provides a framework and a set of principles that focus on efficiency of movement on the one hand, and attention to thought and intention on the other. In the one-on-one coaching session(s) we will look at each delegate’s habits while playing the instrument, and then seek ways for artistic expression without the hindrance of pain, injury or inefficient use of the body. We will use hands-on work to provide support to go beyond the known and familiar as we explore ways to enhance your freedom as an artist. You are invited to bring your instrument as well as music that you want to work on.
