Amira has been really helpful in helping me understand the way my body moves. There’s always something new to work on, given the extent to which most of us have tension in our bodies. I have learned a lot of practical things to help me release tension that I find myself thinking about regularly. I would highly recommend Amira to anyone who’s interested in Alexander Technique or their own body habits more generally.
