“Clare has a playful, radical spirit, and a contagious curiosity. She is eager to share her extensive knowledge and skilled at adapting lesson plans to fit the interests of class participants. I’d be there every week if I could!”

Margaret Coote, Musician and Music Educator:

“The quality of my movement definitely changes when I use the 9 points. I notice that everything gets looser and freer. There is more space. My limbs can balance off of my torso. If I get overwhelmed or confused in my activities, I return to the first 2 points. I enjoy these especially when lifting weights (where I have to be very specific about my movement so that I don’t hurt myself), doing yoga (keeping me engaged, allowing my movement to get consistently better), and playing my instruments (violin, viola, piano).”

Pam, Health Care Consultant

“Thank you very much for the wonderful classes – nothing I have tried for my wide range of muscle tension ailments has given me this kind of relief or this degree of optimism. You have provided a way forward and a practice and I am extremely grateful – I’d had no idea of what the hell I was going to do about my increasingly unhappy body.”

MICHAEL HANKO, Singing and Alexander Technique Teacher

“Clare’ brilliance is a combination of deep intellectual rigor and accessibility. She explains complex anatomical points in a casual and easily understood style that conveys not only practical and useful knowledge, but also her joy in the process of self-discovery. She uses simple language and an easily applied awareness to dramatically shift the way one’s body moves. I found that, within seconds, I had accessed ease of movement and grace… and was having a darn good time of it!”
