The Alexander Technique is a skill which takes time to learn. After the trial session, clients new to the Technique should therefore book a block of 4, 6 or 10 sessions at a discounted rate (see below). To begin learning the Alexander Technique, I recommend at least 6 sessions.

4 sessions: £230 (£10 discount)

After the trial session, regular sessions last 45 minutes. A one-off session costs £60.

I have been to numerous Alexander talks over the past 40 or so years … What Henry’s talk did, though, was to explain the rationale behind the Technique in a way which clarified it for me as never before.

I was completely new to the technique and went into my first session with no knowledge at all. I found it a really interesting concept in terms of managing the root cause rather than symptoms. I found Henry a great teacher, he is obviously passionate about what he does and was great to learn from. He explains the history of the technique and provided lots of extra information alongside each session I attended. Booked one batch and then booked another set earlier this year. Would recommend to anyone - whether experienced or brand new to the Alexander Technique.

I signed up with Henry expecting to learn what good posture feels like and hoping I could reduce back pain from working in the office. Instead I came away with what felt like a missing piece of how to live as a human being. Henry is a superb, gentle and knowledgable teacher and I really do recommend reaching out to understand how the Alexander Technique can help you.

A useful lesson for life. As for a student that plays violin, I come to Bristol Alexander studio to learn some Alexander technique for helping me better performing. The teacher is very helpful. I have gained skills not only in performing, but also in dealing with stress in daily life. Alexander technique is the best mindfulness too. After several sessions, I feel my body is more relaxed in doing different things, I experienced less pain from body, now I am more confident. Plus, it is also applied in sports, public speaking.... Highly recommend to everybody who wants a healthy and relaxed lifestyle.

Very helpful lessons I never knew I needed in being aware to help me through sciatica. Really helped me manage pain and avoid doing all those little things that make things work. Don't think I would have recovered without it

I have enjoyed beginning my Alexander Technique journey with Henry. His calm and relaxed approach has supported and encouraged me from week to week. I can’t thank him enough. These sessions have really enabled me to change my life.

I have really benefited from my sessions with Henry. After reading and talking to a friend who was experienced with the Alexander technique, I contacted Henry to see if this might help to improve my neck and back posture. His approach is both sensitive and pragmatic, he is a good teacher and follows up each session with web links and reading to keep the student encouraged, so that learning from him is a pleasure. It was interesting to me how the technique can be applied to any daily activity, and I have really enjoyed trying to do that. After many years with bad habits one can only expect that improvement requires time and practice but I am confident that I am on the way!

Henry provides a holistic and personalized approach to the Alexander Technique. As a GP this provided me with a different perspective on movement and the way the mind and body interact. The lessons are pitched perfectly and I now have some strategies to avoid injury and promote strength in my day to day. Recommend!

A real privilege to find a teacher like Henry in the city where I live. I enjoyed each of our 7 sessions and also all the useful information he has shared over the past few weeks. I highly recommend Bristol Alexander Studio not only to actors and musicians, but to anyone who wants to learn the best 'use of the self'!

I find the Alexander Technique is fundamental to improving many areas of my life. Working with Henry was fun, interesting and challenging. After the sessions I have gained more freedom in my piano playing aswell as some great ideas to share with my pupils.
