REVIEWS

Alice - September 2024

Jen is a truly excellent Alexander teacher - she lives and breathes the technique, and she is informed and sensitive and interested, with a lot of experience of working with different styles of teaching. I’m an Alexander teacher myself and I always learn something from her quietly energetic ‘non doing’ hands and clear way of explaining. Most recently she showed me something about sitting that completely changed how I play the cello, and I found that bowing had become easier with freer sound. Amazing! I totally recommend her.

My sessions with Jen have been extremely helpful in releasing the tension and pain I was experiencing due to a persistently stiff shoulder. As a newcomer to the Alexander Technique, I was immediately put at ease by Jenny’s warmth and her calm and professional welcome as she answered all my questions and explained how it works.  Jen’s hands guide and correct with gentle perceptiveness and skill. I especially like the stillness in her approach; the peaceful space it allows to breathe and relax muscles at deepest level. I find myself letting go of tension and stress I’m not even aware of carrying. I invariably leave my sessions with a sense of release, lightness and wellbeing and a heightened awareness of posture and movement and what I can do to look after them. Jen is a highly skilled and intuitive Alexander Technique teacher and I thoroughly recommend her.

Hannah - September 2024

I found Jen to be very perceptive with a calming and reassuring presence. After our session my lower back had really eased and I felt much more upright and relaxed. Jen showed me how to start maintaining this when going about my day. I would really recommend both the Technique and Jen.

Jen has calm warm and thoughtful manner. She has greatly alleviated the discomfort in my back and shoulders and has showed me ways of keeping this going in between sessions.

Dennis - September 2024

Jen is a gem of an Alexander Technique teacher. I have had many lessons over the years and Jen is one of the best teachers I have worked with. She is warm and empathetic and is passionate about the technique which shows in the quality of her teaching. I would highly recommend her.

Cheryl - October 2024

I started having sessions because I was finding it hard to sit comfortably at work and I was beginning to experience some niggling pains. I am surprised at how much I am enjoying our sessions. I leave them feeling deeply relaxed, energised and effortlessly upright. Jen offers excellent advice and has helped me become much more mindful of my body and posture, which has reduced my pain and discomfort. I have noticed that my mind is more peaceful and I can think of the things that were on my mind in a different and calmer way. My sleep has also improved.  As Jen starts working on me, I feel a sense of relaxation and tension releasing. Her hands have a reassuring and clear quality and she is a very skilled practitioner.  I would highly recommend her.

Jean - October 2024

Jen is passionate about the Alexander Technique and her enthusiasm is contagious. I find her a warm and engaging teacher and her gentle and thoughtful manner is very calming. She has also given me helpful advice on ways to practice the technique at home. I thoroughly enjoy my sessions with her and I leave them feeling relaxed, lighter and more upright. I have no hesitation in recommending Jen.

Elise - January 2025

Jen is a truly passionate and knowledgable teacher, advocate and devotee of the Alexander Technique. My time with Jen was a complete revelation. During my session I learnt so much about my body and left feeling lighter, less tense, more aligned and equipped with strategies to carry forward into everyday life. Jen explained the process with calm confidence and a kind, reassuring manner. I have suffered with neck and shoulder pain for years - this has eased after one session and I am much more aware of my posture and movement. I will definitely return to Jen and hope to explore the AT further.

Nik - February 2025

Jen is excellent! She is passionate about the Alexander Technique and what it can do for people. She has helped me improve posture - necessary after suffering back pain from office / laptop work. She is also calm and reassuring in her treatments - a very relaxing experience! Highly recommend!

Veronica - February 2025

I have only had one treatment with Jen so far but will definitely be having more. I am 71 and bits of me are beginning to ache and are out of alignment !She has helped to relax my back and shoulders and improved my standing position. I felt very relaxed and comfortable during the whole session. I recommend her.

Francesca - February 2025

Jen has magical hands and I felt thoroughly relaxed and grounded after our session.

Sue - February 2025

I cannot emphasise enough how positive I feel about my Alexander experience with Jen. I found her to be engaging, thoughtful and sensitive. Her capable hands guided with such gentle and subtle movements, helping my body to position itself into a more natural posture. Even my right shoulder, slightly raised from years of repetitive but unnatural practice, started to drop a little and adopt a more natural position. All this is extremely gentle and relaxing – there is no pulling, pressing or twisting in the Technique. Gradually my neck, shoulders and back felt freed up. I ended by feeling more energised, more connected and aware of my posture and definitely needing more sessions!

Isabel - April 2025

I came to Jen for help with anxiety after going through a period of repeated panic attacks. I was looking for ways to help me stay calm and relaxed and wanted to give the Alexander Technique a go. Iam so happy I did as Jen really helped me to feel at ease almost immediately and I was able to let go of any tension very quickly. She explained to me what to expect and do at the beginning of the session which I found really helpful and her gentle nature, warmth and kindness just added to my experience. I would definitely recommend Jen to anyone looking to try the Alexander Technique. I felt so much better and lighter afterwards.

Bjorn - May 2025

I started taking Alexander Technique lessons many years ago with Anthony Kingsley when he was still based near Bond Street. I play bass guitar and I first came across the technique as a way of mitigating a repetitive strain injury, and I kept taking lessons with Anthony for a couple of years; the technique has been instrumental in making a recovery and in avoiding further strain injuries. As far as I am aware Anthony is one of the most respected teachers of the technique in the country, so having experienced one great teacher, I feel like I can safely say that Jen is another great teacher of Alexander Technique and I recommend her highly. She also offers great insight into how the technique actually works in day to day life and I always enjoy our chats about how the technique is actually experienced. She is also very reasonably priced, and has a heated table!

Ralph - June 2025

I, Ralph, have been having one-to-one lessons with Jen for learning and applying the Alexander technique, now, for several months. My problems were a very bad posture, both sitting and standing, and a decline in my ability to walk ever smaller distances. Since starting, both posture and especially walking have improved to a great extent. In the lessons, Jen has explained in detail the anatomical principles behind the techniques, the importance of balance and awareness and made sure that the movements and postures are developed and retained. I have found that the lessons are enjoyable, and I look forward, each time, to the next session. As a bonus, in these times, Jen's fees are very affordable
