GROUP or PRIVATE.  Wellness & Performance on High Heels. If we need to do it, let’s do it safely and elegantly.  The shoes are usually very cute and unfortunately not always well balanced. They are not really adapted to the natural structure of our body, at rest or in movement and so there is the risk of misusing the whole thing, body and shoes together. Applying the principles of Alexander technique to the structure may bring safety to the whole as well as some elegance to the organization at rest and in movement. Your teacher is a certified M.AmSAT Alexander technique Teacher and a professional actress who actually did have to wear very high heels for 4 hours in a row for several evenings on stage. With movement and music.  With safety on our side, we may actually have also elegance! Info:  [email protected]  Subject: High Heels.
