DESCRIPTION:Subject of tonight’s introductory talk on the Alexander Technique\nPrimarily the Alexander Technique helps raising awareness and organizing ourselves for improved use of ourselves in our activities. \nThis also implies improved awareness of how we react to pain\, which can help us discover better ways of dealing with it\, on top of whatever treatment\, when necessary\, we might be following. \nWe learn how to prevent the body from reinforcing compensatory protective reactions and maintain a good coordination. \n\nPractical demonstration \nYou have the opportunity to experience the Alexander Technique unique subtle touch for improved perception of oneself. \n\nQuestions and answers \nQuestions will be welcomed during and after the talk and demonstration.\nYou will be able to find out how the Alexander Technique can help deal consciously with your difficulties. \nYou are welcome even if curiosity only brings you here\, as reading about the Alexander Technique or watching bad videos on the web is not enough to grasp its powerful and practical dimension. \n\nBooking required \nPlease write to athvettas@hotmail.com or phone to 0477 29 10 53 (8 to 9 am and pm or Saturday

on lessons\, talks and workshops DESCRIPTION:INDIVIDUAL LESSONS\nMy working time is mainly devoted to providing individual lessons at\nrue Solleveld 53 – Woluwe Saint-Lambert – 1200 Brussels. \nThe cost of a lesson is 50 € and last around 45 to 60 minutes. \nI charge 40 € to younger people and students. \nAfter an initial lesson of evaluation\, a commitment to 10 lessons is expected\nin order to secure practical benefits and fundamental understanding of the Alexander Technique psycho-physical approach. \nIf your interest in the Alexander Technique is serious enough and you have financial concerns\, please do contact me to find out about possible arrangements. \nContact : athvettas@hotmail.com and 0477 29 10 53 \n\nINTRODUCTORY TALKS\n\nUnless otherwise specified\, introductory talks usually take place at rue Solleveld 53 – 1200 Brussels and cost 5€ (see events below). \nThe main purpose of my talks is to give you the opportunity to come and meet me and have a practical hands on experience of the Alexander Technique. \nAt the same time it is the ideal place to ask your questions freely and find out if you might consider to go further and discover what the Alexander Technique might have to offer you. \nYou are also welcome if just curiosity brings you here\, as reading about it on internet on watching videos on You Tube cannot replace a real hands on experience and might even be misleading sometimes as to the real nature of the work. \nI am also welcoming propositions for introductory talks to groups of a minimum 6 people at a place of your choice. \nContact : athvettas@hotmail.com and  0477 29 10 53 \n\nCONFERENCES\nI am available for presentations of the Alexander Technique to larger and more specific audiences (scientific\, artistic\, medical\,

where no previous experience in the Alexander is needed (see events below). \n \n \nIt is possible\, on demand\, to organize more specific and longer workshops\,\n or even with larger groups together with other coleagues. \nContact : athvettas@hotmail.com and 0477 29 10 53 \n\nPROFESSIONAL WORKSHOPS FOR BODY AND MANUAL PRACTITIONERS\nI am also\, on demand\, leading workshops for manual and movement therapists and teachers\, where I help them become more aware in the use of themselves and the use of their hands while working on their patients or teaching movement. \nContact: athvettas@hotmail.com and 0477 29 10 53 \n\nWORKSHOPS FOR STUDENTS \nI am also available for workshops on the use of the body and the hands for students in professional training schools
