About Ruth
My name is Ruth Hommelsheim. I'm a qualified teacher of the Alexander Technique and a teaching member of The Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique (STAT). My search for solutions to severe and frequent headaches I had since childhood finally led me to the Alexander Technique which helped me so much that I wanted to learn more. I trained with Anthony Kingsley at the Alexander Teacher Training School (ATTS). It was an intense process of self-development and integration, as well as learning how to teach the technique and accompany others in their process. During my training with Anthony Kingsley, a strong emphasis was placed on a trauma-informed and emotionally literate Alexander Technique. This approach takes into account the potential impact of adverse experiences on an individual's well-being and involves creating a safe and respectful environment where individuals feel heard and empowered. It is a personalised approach that recognises the importance of treating the whole person, not just their symptoms and involves a partnership between the teacher and the individual. I’m passionate about the holistic and non-invasive approach of unlearning long-standing habits and patterns of reaction to current and past challenges, that manifest as physical pain or emotional stress. I believe the Alexander Technique is a true skill for life. Everyone can benefit from it. It's for people from all walks of life, regardless of their age or condition. And it can help improve your overall quality of life!

The Alexander Technique is a gentle and effective mind-body method teaching you to change long-standing habits that cause unnecessary tension in everything you do. My lessons aim to improve your natural balance and coordination, freedom of movement and a sense of vitality and well-being. HOW IT WORKS Typically, the Alexander Technique is taught one-on-one, without the need for special clothing. As a teacher, I guide my students through everyday movements like sitting and standing, helping them identify and unlearn unhelpful habits and reactions. Through gentle hands-on guidance and verbal instruction, students can release unconscious tension, resulting in increased energy, freedom of movement and emotional balance. This supports the innate self-healing capacities of the whole organism. BENEFITS Possible benefits of a course of Alexander Technique lessons, depending on your individual interest and engagement: Greater ease and efficiency of movement Reduced tension and stress in the body and mind Improved balance and coordination Relief from chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues Enhanced ability to manage stress and anxiety Improved awareness and mindfulness in daily life Enhanced performance in activities such as music, sports, and public speaking Improved breathing and vocal control Increased energy and vitality More resilience to cope with life's challenges Enhanced overall well-being and quality of life

I am in my sixties now and am suffering from chronic back pain and all sorts of physical and mental aches. Apart from being my trustworthy, empathic, and all-around lovely friend for over three decades now, she also is a wonderful Alexander technique teacher. The sessions I have had and will have with her have certainly alleviated some of my back pain, reduced anxieties, and made me feel generally better within and about myself. Ruth is a fine human being and a top-notch teacher. Thank you.
