Evelyn is a highly-skilled practitioner of the Alexander Technique. Her cheerful demeanor and wit make lessons in her studio something worth seeking out. I took a multi-decade break from AT lessons, and I feel very fortunate to have found an instructor with the patience and clarity to re-engage my practice. Her gentle hands-on guidance and careful instructions point both toward a freer, easier experience of daily life, and toward more skillfully accomplishing any task you might care to undertake. Evelyn’s a real gem!

I've had a wonderful experience taking Alexander Technique classes with Evelyn. Evelyn is excellent at communicating the technique in many different ways that have helped me to integrate the principles into my everyday thinking and movement. I've noticed significant improvement in my back and neck issues since attending lessons with Evelyn, gaining a new understanding of how to move in everyday activities and athletics. Evelyn has made me feel super comfortable in her studio. She's also a delight to interact with. I look forward to each of our lessons!

Evelyn is warm, supportive, curious, and - as the cherry on top - very funny. These things quickly became apparent in our first meeting and made a strong foundation for our subsequent work. I’m someone who’s had chronic tension and pain for some time, and I found Evelyn’s practical advice and coaching extremely valuable. I return to various aspects of the lessons on a regular basis, which makes sense given that what she teaches is really a lifelong practice. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found her.

Evelyn has made a world of difference in my professional and personal well-being. I can walk without pain, teach piano without straining my back, sing with better alignment and less effort. Evelyn is practical, funny and supportive. She is very skilled in helping me apply the Alexander Technique to all areas of my physical well-being - in the home, at work and during exercise. Can't recommend her enough!!!

To say that discovering the Alexander Technique was a life changing experience would be an understatement. My biggest regret is not discovering it sooner, having lived for the last 30 years with poor posture causing pain, a lack of confidence in my body and an inability to exercise properly. The Alexander Technique helped me unlearn the bad habits I didn't know I had and the results were noticable straight away. After a year of lessons with Evelyn I feel like a a different person and continue to be amazed every time I see myself in a photo, or realize I've been able to run or cycle without pain for longer than I ever could before. Evelyn is a wonderful, interesting and engaging teacher. I look forward to every lesson and am excited to continue my journey into better body awareness, no pain and all round better health for which the Alexander Technique has become a foundation.

I first started seeing Evelyn remotely due to the pandemic but continued working with her at her office as things began to reopen. She is an absolute joy to work with. Her expertise as a teacher, and her enthusiastic approach to the Alexander technique make for a perfect combination.

I have gained so much body awareness and ease through Evelyn's guidance and gentle touch. I really appreciate the Alexander Technique for being accessible and for all bodies. Ease and not-doing are hard to come by in our society, so this was a big relief!

Evelyn has insight into how to train an individual to walk, sit, stand and move without effort or tension. She greatly improved the mobility of my neck and the pain disappeared.
