OUR REQUIREMENTS

Discover Alexander Technique and get to know us!
Before embarking on a teacher training course, it is essential to have worked on Alexander Technique in individual sessions with a qualified teacher. To best prepare your arrival amongst us, you will need to arrange a lesson with the director, Agnès de Brunhoff, or the assistant director, Christine Clicquot, as well as a series of visits, spread across the course of a week, in our workshop.

What you come out with at the end 

This course enables you to to apply the principles of Alexander Technique via words and touch, in your everyday life.

But beyond this, you will be able to pass on your knowledge and experience to others through the medium of conferences and workshops, both theoretical and practical.

Our aim at the CFTA is to be the best possible guide for you along your journey of personal and professional discovery.

For this, our close-knit teaching team will be devoted to your well-being within a mixed group of students from each of the three years, in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

The CFTA is based on the academic year, following school holiday dates in mid-autumn, at Christmas, in February and at Easter, and closing down for the summer from the second week in July to the third week in August.
