Practicalities

Location

I teach in Ottershaw, near Addlestone in Surrey, which is close to Woking Chertsey and Weybridge (directions at bottom of page).

How long does it take to learn?

The Alexander Technique involves changing longstanding habits. Like anything worthwhile, it requires a little commitment in order for the lessons to be effective. To get the benefits it is necessary to come for weekly lessons to begin with. For most people 10-12 lessons is a reasonable minimum number. Given the effect on how you feel from day to day, and the long-term effects on health and well-being, the benefit is generally considerably out of proportion to the cost!

How long is each lesson and how much does it cost?

Each in person lesson lasts about 45 minutes, and my standard rate is £50 per lesson. Concessions may be available in cases of real need, please ask.

I also offer a discounted block of ten lessons for £450 (£45 per lesson) when paid for in advance.

What to wear

There is no need to bring special clothing, but you should wear something loose fitting and comfortable. Be aware we may be working on the floor for part of the session.

Directions

In Ottershaw

The Old Post Office
42 Hare Hill
Ottershaw
Surrey
KT15 1DT

The Old Post Office is on Hare Hill just by the corner of Furze Road. The bus stop heading towards Addlestone is right by the front gate (the 557 bus runs here from Chertsey, Shepperton, Sunbury and Addlestone).

If coming by car you can usually park right outside the house. Please leave a little space clear for the bus stop. Some people feel it is a little too exposed on the corner. If you don’t want to park there, then there is generally on street parking close by at the Ottershaw end of Hare Hill. Please do NOT park on Furze Road, which is private.
