For over 15 years, Rose's Alexander lessons have kept me free of pain and physically capable. Previously, I put a lot of strain on my body with bad habits while working, but Rose has helped me reverse them. 


As a university student, I suffered from back pain and stiffness, while in my 30's and 40's as a restaurant owner and cook, I had hip and lower back pain and limited mobility. In my 50’s working retail, I had frozen shoulders, knee pain, and more back pain. However, I refused knee and shoulder surgeries and opted for the Alexander Technique. Now, in my 60's, I’m still working in retail, lifting heavy boxes as well as taking care of my toddler grandson which involves carrying a mini person daily. Who knew that now I would be feeling better than I have in decades? 


Rose has helped me find my way back to using my body correctly. Knowing how to work in your body and how to undo years of lower back and shoulder abuse has me living well. Thank you Rose!
