Workshops

Workshops

Workshops are the cornerstone of every Congress, and your chance to showcase the work.

Your reputation and professional expertise are extremely valuable to the international Alexander Technique Community, and will help to make the Congress a reflection of the best that the global Alexander community has to offer.

This time, we are offering three different time lengths of workshops to allow you to match your energy levels.

  • Mini (30 min)
  • Medium (75 min)
  • XL workshops (150 min.)

Every day of the week, except for Wednesday, there will be at least two Mini or Medium and one XL running in parallel.

* Workshops (and all other Congress events, except Continuous Learning) are walk-in events. This means you don’t need to book your spot.
We only have to make sure that maximum room occupancies are being observed. For your favourite workshops, we therefore advise you to be there a few minutes early before the workshop starts.
