I was born and raised in the picturesque ski resort of St. Anton am Arlberg, Austria. Growing up in a family-run B&B, I was exposed to a constant stream of people from all walks of life. This unique upbringing gave me a keen eye for observing human behaviour and an ever-changing audience to entertain.

Before embarking on my career as an Alexander Teacher, I worked part-time for various architects, including the renowned Michael Hopkins. I also spent time honing my skills at a bronze foundry run by the artist John Somerville, casting sculptures both for myself and others.

It was during this time that I discovered the Alexander Technique, which transformed my life in ways I never thought possible. I knew then that I wanted to share this knowledge with others and become a teacher myself.

After three years of intensive training, I emerged with a deep passion for storytelling and a desire to impart the importance of FM Alexander's scientific discoveries. Through my talks and workshops, I aim to entertain and enlighten my audience, helping them understand how our habitual use of movement, thinking, and behavior affects every aspect of our lives.

My experience & health benefits learning and practicing the Alexander Technique:

I had my first Alexander Lesson in my mid-twenties, because of experiencing constant aches and pains two years after a shoulder operation for reoccurring dislocations from a skiing accident. All my attempts at finding a solution, which included running and other sporty activities, only resulted in aggravating the situation and within a short time, I was also in pain during the night and at rest.

I was fortunate enough to catch the last 20 minutes of a Channel 4 Documentary about FM Alexander's scientific discoveries. I immediately realised that the cause of my pain was my habitual way of moving and how I held myself. I literally found a teacher the next day and have never looked back. Becoming pain free within a short time made me a very dedicated student and eventually an extremely passionate teacher. 

Experiencing no pain whilst performing all my daily activities, from heavy lifting to sitting for hours at a computer was truly life-changing and very liberating. I started to experience not only physical, but also deep emotional well-being, that I lost during my development from childhood into adulthood. I still today feel very privileged to have found AT, as I now can enjoy ageing gracefully and without aches and pains.

I provide private lessons, run courses, and give regular public talks to share my knowledge and understanding of FM Alexander’s scientific discoveries. He was one of the great modern pioneers who discovered and understood the importance of psycho-physical unity and wellbeing. I also created and implemented an Alexander Technique curriculum for further Education training courses.
