Alexander Technique with Yoga & Tuscan Cooking
5-day Workshop : Friday August 7th, 2009 through Wednesday August 12th, 2009
Villa Chiara di Prumiano, Tuscany, Italy

No matter where you are in your study and interest in the Alexander Technique, we invite you to come and learn in the beautiful setting of Tuscany, Italy.

The Alexander Technique Residential Workshops are open to anyone who wants the opportunity to work with a variety of highly skilled Alexander Technique teachers in a community setting. The faculty is an ensemble of experienced teachers and long term friends. This marks our 29th year of working together!

Our workshops have proven to be an excellent introduction to anyone new to the technique. People currently studying will find the support they need to clarify and deepen their work. Some of our participants are considering becoming teachers of the Alexander Technique and have an opportunity to meet and to work with teachers from several training courses and Alexander teaching traditions; some are enrolled in teachertraining programs, and some are practicing teachers returning to study with friends and Master Teachers. All come to be inspired and refreshed.

Our aim is to create an intensive learning experience. There will be large and small group sessions as well as individual Alexander lessons. Optional classes will be offered in related studies such as Yoga, Alexander Technique in Daily Activities, Sports Skills, Relaxation, Authentic Movement, Voice, and Performance Skills.

All courses offer practical, in-depth study. Study includes several private lessons with master teachers, a small daily homeroom group in which you work closely with one teacher for the whole week, and a variety of afternoon and evening classes and activities from which to choose.

The Tuscany, Italy course is held at Chiara di Prumiano, a beautiful historic villa surrounded by vineyards and olive orchards. Located in the hills one hour drive south of Florence on the way to Sienna. This week long course offers the quintessential learning experience in a magical setting which includes excellent food and wine.
