About me

Thanks fo visiting my web site!

My name is Julia Lesnykh and I am a graduate of the Toronto School of the Alexander Technique.

I discovered the Alexander Technique after many years of searching and trying different modalities: classical hatha yoga, functional movement, Feldenkrais, dance, physiotheraphy, structural integration, barre fitness, pilates, to name a few. I worked on myself very hard for many years but something was still missing.

I felt that somehow after all these year of working on myself, I still lacked the foundation and structure for the intergated movement and well-being. My back and neck problems kept coming back quickly after various treatments, which led me to the conclusion that nobody can "fix" me, so I have to find a way to help myself.


Under the guidance of my teachers, Elaine Kopman and Howard Bockner, I learned (and am still learning) how to change the unwanted physical and mental patterns in order to improve my well-being. I quickly realized the value of the Alexander Technique and left my successful career in finance to become a teacher of the Technique and to share it with others.

I truly hope that you'll give it a try!

Yours,

Julia
