Posture At Work Sessions
These individual sessions are designed to give a grounding on how to sit well at your desk. I am a qualified DSE (Desk Screen Equipment) assessor, and I combine this with the principles of the Alexander Technique.
Long hours sitting at a terminal or on a device can cause muscular tension and stiffness. Transform sitting from a static activity into an alive and active one by learning how to:
- Develop good head, neck and pelvis alignment to allow your spine to support you
- Avoid “craning screen neck” by re-mapping your nodding joint
- Keep a more expanded open posture for easy typing
- Improve how to better use your elbows for mouse, keyboard and screen use
- Strategies to free (jammed) hip joints while seated
This course runs over two sessions of 40mins each for a total cost of £120.
Workshops
I also run and am available for lessons and workshops on location by arrangement.
