My attention was first brought to the Alexander Technique in 1986, when I thought I had exhausted all possibilities into my search for relief from chronic back pain, a condition that was then dominating my life. Following the usual avenues of both orthodox & complementary medicine, I reluctantly agreed to spinal surgery and was left without a lifeline when this failed to produce a result.

Nearly 15 years later, with 10 of those spent teaching the Technique, I am as fascinated by its application as ever. I completed my 3 year training as a Teacher in South Devon U.K & emigrated to Australia in 93 with my two sons.

My current interests revolve mainly around the ocean, I'm involved with Nth Narrabeen Boardriders & I surf with my sons most days. I still ride a surfboard, and, I would like to think I'm still getting better. I also enjoy playing soccer in the Northern Beaches with the Newport Gerries during the winter, where we have a great time experiencing degrees of success on the field
