In addition to offering private lessons, professional seminars and introductory workshops, I was recently appointed Head of Alexander Technique at the Royal Academy of Music, where I have been on the AT faculty since 2021.

Services
-
The Alexander Technique is learned primarily in one-to-one lessons, tailored to the individual and their needs.
Alexander Technique lessons enable the pupil to notice and let go of subtle habits that are unnecessary and potentially an impediment to healthy and effective movement, or that may cause chronic pain, reduced mobility or even injuries. More
-
I offer Alexander Technique classes in north London for small groups of 6 to 12 participants at various venues in north London.
Private classes are also available, if you have a group of three or more people. More
-
I offer a range of workshops on covering both broad and specific topics, as well as corporate wellbeing seminars and professional development courses for Alexander Technique teachers, classroom teachers, musicians, or yoga instructors. More
What People Say
-
No more back pain, awareness of my body and a mindful interaction with it – the Alexander Technique with Kerin Black has become a valuable pillar of my life. The fact that I also receive suggestions on how to slow down my stressful daily life is an added bonus in my lessons with Kerin. I already had some insights into the Alexander Technique during my music studies. Alexander Technique with Kerin, however, especially convinced me through her high level of professionalism. You notice through and through that she is highly qualified and experienced and a true Alexander Technique teacher in direct lineage to FM Alexander himself.

I had my first Alexander Technique lessons with Kerin about 15 years ago and continue to come back whenever timing and location make it possible. AT has been instrumental in keeping me healthy and unhurt throughout an active performing career as a violinist: first while auditioning and then managing the demands of full-time orchestral work. Kerin‘s teaching is sensitive and has helped me develop an awareness of my body and movement that spreads into everything I do. Can thoroughly recommend!

Dear Kerin, I want to thank you, because a few days ago I won a permanent position with the Südwestfalen Philharmonic Orchestra! The work with you helped me a lot! I have already recommended you and the Alexander Technique to other orchestral colleagues. I hope they have been in touch! Thank you again und see you again, I’m sure.
