What my students are saying... |

“’I haven’t felt like that since I was in my mid-twenties, in the early 1970’s,’ I told a friend, describing my experience after having had my first lesson with Amira Glaser. “But what exactly did you feel?” my friend asked me to elaborate. “At ease,” I said, after having thought a moment, “and like I had 360 degrees of freedom!” Ease and freedom return with each lesson and slowly seep into my day. Amira is a skilled and effective practitioner and a kind human being. Hers is an integral part in the creation and maintenance of my well-being.” “I have no neck pain anymore!” “I have derived enormous benefit from the Alexander Technique and have found Amira Glaser to be a superb guide in helping me to connect with a natural way of being in my body. Her warmth of personality, and the sincerity with which she approaches her work, make for a wonderfully enjoyable process. Her knowledge of the Alexander Technique and of the body – plainly evident in the ease of her teaching style and the clarity of her explanations – allow real progress to be a very natural part of the student’s experience. I have been pleasantly and greatly surprised by the effectiveness of Amira’s work. Having tried a number of directions to free my body from tension and unease in my work, and in my everyday life, I wasn’t sure that it was something I would ever find: I have been proven wrong!” “I am someone who questions everything and Amira is open to being challenged and to exploring FM Alexander’s ideas with you. She practices what she preaches!” “Amira has the most gentle touch. She also patiently explains the concepts/technique in a way that helps me visualize what I have to do. My regret is I did not take Amira’s class sooner.” “As a teacher Amira Glaser is remarkably gentle, extremely insightful, and very devoted to her students. In her class I always felt at ease. When she did hands on work, I felt myself relax into her hands, and never felt embarrassed to ask questions. I started to understand that I can't "fix" or judge myself, I have to accept and love my habits before I can change them. Amira created a safe place where I could be myself, while at the same time encouraged me to explore a new kind of thinking and movement. Though I felt vulnerable at times, I knew I wasn't alone as she was always by my side with a supportive smile and a trusting hand.” “Amira is a true professional who has a natural gift for teaching and a genuine love for her art. Her amiable demeanor is very conducive to learning. In her classes she really demonstrates her interest in the students. My husband and I have noticed a reduction of back pain since participating in her classes. Her rates are quite reasonable and we consider it an investment in ourselves.” “I’ve been amazed by the ease and enjoyment studying the Alexander Technique has brought to my performance on stage, I’m remembering what drew me to perform in the first place, and I’ve learned how to get out of my own way.” |
