Anthony's Profile
Anthony Kingsley has been teaching and training for 35 years. He is also a trained psychotherapist. He has been training Alexander Technique Teachers in London since 1990 and assisted in the training of over 100 teachers who are now working in the UK and throughout the world. Anthony’s school, the Alexander Teacher Training School, based in Golders Green, offers ongoing personal development as well as professional training in the Alexander Technique.

Anthony has evolved a powerful mind-body approach to the Alexander Technique. He is particularly passionate about what medics refer to as “somatisation”, which is when the body reveals and reflects our trauma and pain. Anthony sees the potential of the Alexander Technique not just for posture, aches and pains, but also and crucially for emotional healing.

He gives workshops and seminars on the Technique to the general public in the United Kingdom and abroad. He also consults to industry and the medical profession on stress-management, personal effectiveness and trauma healing. He offers bespoke Alexander Technique sessions at his Studio in London and on-line.

Anthony was very honoured to have written the new introduction to the recently republished, 2019, Alexander classic: “Use of the Self”.

Meet the presenters:
Glenna Batson

Glenna discovered the Alexander Technique in 1981, and thus began a long journey into life and depth. Her initial interest in dance and Somatics in the early 1970\u2019s led her first to study with Irene Dowd, a four-year apprenticeship in Ideokinesis. Here, Glenna developed a passionate interest in how the mind and body work together.

In 1983, she joined the Bruce and Martha Fertman’s first training course in Philadelphia. This early foundation paved the way for a career path that incorporated (and integrated) multiple studies in anatomy, neuroscience, somatic education, rehabilitation medicine, philosophy and dance.

She currently co-directs the training course for the Alexander Technique Centre, Galway, directed by Richard Brennan and is an active consultant and teacher for The Poise Project. Over more than a third of a century of engagement, Glenna has witnessed enormous shifts within the world body of Alexander and within the public at large.
The world community is ablaze with creativity — open and agile to sharing information, creating new venues for learning, addressing the needs and challenges of multiple populations, and delving into research. Now in her seventh decade, she sees no end to this learning continuum, and thanks all her teachers for giving of themselves so generously.
