London Centre for Alexander Technique and Training

TEACHERS

We have a lively team of experienced teachers which gives the course variety and depth.

Refia Sacks, the director of the training course, has been involved with the Alexander Technique for over thirty years and has been teaching for over twenty. She qualified as a teacher in 1982 at the Alexander Teaching Associates and has taught there and at several other training courses throughout Britain and Ireland. She has extensive experience running groups, residential courses and a private practice. For many years she ran a natural health centre in London. Refia is a professional artist and has combined teaching in this area with her Alexander teaching.
