EMBODIED MINDFULNESS
grounded in The Alexander Technique
I am a Somatic Educator and Mindfulness Coach certified through AmSAT in the Alexander Technique (m.AmSAT).
I am deeply dedicated to the accessibility of this work. Work that enlivens one to foster their truest, most authentic connection to self. Enabling them to live a life of freedom from societal implications.
The Alexander Technique?
The Alexander Technique (AT) is a way in which we can live our everyday lives the way nature intended.
In practice, it is a psychophysical re-education of our neuromuscular system that enlivens our awareness and gives us the potential for freedom from our habits, both mental and physical.
Through this embodied mindfulness practice we can engender a continuous exploration of our personhood and how we relate to both ourselves and our environment through curiosity, connection, and creativity.

““I had a wonderful time in Tyler’s class. They are so kind and cheerful. They have a playful attitude towards learning, so it’s less about stressfully trying to “get it right” and more about exploring, discovering, and having fun along the way. I have already been implementing the ideas from one game we played during class, and it’s been really helpful in my everyday activities.””
"You can't do something that you don't know, if you keep on doing what you do know."

Alexander Technique for Performers
As Performers we are asked to be at peak physical condition when working. Being free of both physical and mental habits interfering with the ability for peak performance is where the Alexander Technique can set you free.
It can aid in; the release of creative blocks, heighten sensory awareness, bolster confidence and self-expression, open avenues of character embodiment, aid in injury prevention, allow a continuous dance between you and your breath flow, and SO MUCH MORE!
““Working with Tyler at any stage in an artistic career is a breath of fresh air. Tyler is intuitive, gentle, and knowledgable—an all around fantastic educator. I could’ve spent the next year in their class and would’ve still been ready for more. This has been a wonderful way to hit the refresh button on my artistic practice!””
““Tyler is an absolutely phenomenal human to work with and learn from. They are respectful, inclusive, and meet you where you’re at! Definitely one of the best teachers I’ve ever had, so I could not recommend this AT workshop more enough.””
