Leán van den Bergh

The Alexander Technique

Individual somatic coaching

Restore the natural poise and function of your body.

Taking a course of individual lessons enable you to notice and change unnecessary patterns of tension in your body. Using a gentle hands-on method and some verbal guidance I help my pupils reintegrate and experience an ease that feels both good and natural.

Lessons develop conscious awareness and a self-directed ability to guide the natural and optimal poise and function of the body.

Individual lessons are 45 minutes, and committing to series of 12 lessons is recommended. Thereafter lessons can taper. Pupils are encouraged to learn to apply the skills for themselves.

Please make contact for current rates and available times. I look forward to working with you and introducing you to a remarkable practice.

Sarah

“I have spinal scoliosis—so I’m destined to have a hunched posture and weird shoulders and walk all tight and bent over and just live with back pain.. right? I thought so… Wrong! I am currently working with Leán — and my whole life and body has changed; I am literally straighter and taller! Over the past few years she has helped me discover, break through and change decades of both inhibiting and crooked physical habits, and their accompanying psychological baggage. She works with incredible patience, insight and a light and calm touch that somehow, magically, allows me to find a new way to walk in the world, physically and more fully ‘with mysefl’. Thank you!”
