The structured programme
The Six Step Plan
Six sessions. Twelve months to use them. A structured path from where you are now to genuine, lasting change.
What's included
A Programme Built Around You
The Six Step Plan is a set of six 40-minute one-to-one sessions with James, structured to build progressively on each other. Unlike a course with a fixed curriculum, each session is adapted entirely to what you need most.
Most clients complete the plan within three to six months, but you have a full twelve months to use your sessions, so you can space them out as your life allows.
Pricing
for six sessions (£65.83 per session)
Most clients begin with a £45 introductory session before purchasing the plan. 96% of intro clients go on to book the Six Step Plan.
The six steps
What Happens in Each Session
Each step builds on the last. By the end, you'll understand your own patterns clearly enough to manage without ongoing lessons.
Understanding Your Habits
We start by identifying the specific postural and movement habits that are causing your pain or limiting your performance. Most people are surprised to discover they're doing something quite different from what they imagine.
Learning to Pause
The Alexander Technique calls this "inhibition", the ability to pause before reacting and choose a different response. It sounds simple, but for most of us it takes genuine practice. This is the foundation everything else builds on.
Freeing the Neck
Almost everyone holds excess tension in the neck, often without knowing it. Once you can release this, the whole body follows. In many cases, chronic pain in other areas starts to ease once the neck is free.
Lengthening and Widening
You'll begin to notice when you're shortening your stature, bracing, pulling down, or collapsing, and learn to allow your body to return to its natural, supported length. This is where posture really changes.
Applying It to Your Life
We work specifically on the activities that affect you most: sitting at a desk, driving, playing an instrument, exercising, sleeping. The technique only works if you can apply it where you need it.
Independence and Maintenance
By session six, most clients no longer need regular lessons. They have the understanding and tools to manage themselves. You'll know how to apply the technique in new situations and how to return to it when stress or old habits creep back.

Who the Plan Works Best For
Chronic pain sufferers
Back pain, neck tension, RSI, headaches. Conditions that have persisted despite other treatments. The plan addresses root causes rather than symptoms.
Performers and musicians
Tension, stage fright, and injury-prone technique are common in performing artists. The Alexander Technique is widely taught in conservatoires for good reason.
Desk workers
Hours at a keyboard create specific patterns of tension and collapse. The plan teaches you how to sit, stand, and move in ways that stop accumulating damage.
People who want independence
If you'd rather understand your own body than rely on weekly treatments indefinitely, the Six Step Plan is designed to give you that independence.
Money-Back Guarantee on Every Session
If you feel no benefit from any individual session, James will refund that session in full. No questions asked. This applies to the intro session and each session in the plan.
