Practice:
I have a private practice in Grey Lynn, Auckland, where I see clients individually for either Feldenkrais lessons or counseling.
I teach a weekly public ATM class and also do workshops and classes with groups such as corporate or professional organizations, from drama students to judges and office workers. Areas of specialty include posture improvement, breathing education, back pain, and movement difficulties related to performance and presentation, sport and every day activities. Stress management.
Profile:
I am also a professional actress, and before that a dancer. I had a lot of back pain while I was a dancer and the discovery of Feldenkrais Method in 1990 changed this along with reducing my stress enormously. Alongside my performing career I have always been interested in health and wellbeing, particularly the relationship between body and mind. I have taught and worked with people in the area of movement education for 20 years. These include actors, musicians, dancers, athletes, business people, those with back, neck and postural difficulties, people with anxiety, stress, migraines etc.
It is a joy working with people in a respectful and explorative way and seeing the changes as people reengage with themselves on all levels!
