What people say...
I have taken Alexander Technique lessons for two years. Not only have the lessons helped alleviate back pain and improve posture they have given me a sense of self confidence which has been noticed by family and friends.

I came to Karen 18 months ago because I was bothered by those muscle tension issues common to busy executives; sore neck, stiff back and shoulders. Karen’s work with me combined The Alexander Technique, massage and simple yoga postures, and today my body stays relaxed and free of pain, even when corporate life is at its most stressful.

Sharing and exploring the Alexander Technique with Karen is a never-ending journey, full of surprises and awareness. As an 82 year old retiree, I am still curious enough to discover new ways to solve old problems. I refer to Karen as my “walking” teacher, and I probably wouldn’t be walking today if it wasn’t for her guidance.

Alexander Technique lessons with Karen have taught me that my patterns of movement cause a build-up of musculoskeletal tension in my upper body, making my breathing inefficient and therefore placing excessive stress on my voice. Learning how to reduce and inhibit this tension in my body has helped me greatly as a voice user and as a voice therapist.

I luckily attended one of Karen Loving’s Alexander Workshops, and could Immediately tell the difference in my balance and posture.
After working with Karen for less than a year, I have had measurable improvements in posture, alignment, and well being. Karen somehow works miracles!

"I have had really bad posture since I was 13. And I didn't want to walk down the aisle at my wedding all hunched down, so I took some Alexander classes. After just two classes, I realized how it easy it was to correct my posture effortlessly. You'll be amazed at what you learn outside of class. That's what the technique is all about: awareness of your own body. And you certainly will become conscious of body parts you've never even heard of or thought of. I am excited that I will walk down the aisle next month, confidently and beautifully. Thank you Karen."
