Would you like to earn your living doing something that makes you feel better yourself?

To be a successful Alexander teacher you need good posture and body use. This is what we teach you. We also teach you ways you can explore your own potential both physically and mentally.

The time that I spent training at the Brighton Alexander Technique College was a period of intense learning, exploration and discovery; I enjoyed it enormously, and I’m confident that I can handle the challenges that will come my way in my teaching career.

Our Heritage

The Brighton Alexander Technique College is a Carrington style-training course, evolving our practice from the renowned skills of Walter & Dilys Carrington.

Carolyn Nicholls, Head of Training, was privileged to have been trained by Walter and Dilys Carrington at the Constructive Teaching Centre in London, qualifying in 1982.

Walter ran Alexander’s own training course and took over at Alexander’s death in 1955. He ran a remarkable course, together with Dilys and other teachers up to his own death in 2005. Dilys was a very creative teacher who influenced the development of what is known as ‘hand-on’ skills, the subtle, elastic quality that defines a good Alexander teachers hands
