Testimonials
"I have tended to suffer from back problems for most of my life, and after a recent bad spell the physiotherapist who was treating me recommended Tai Chi as a follow-up and a method of keeping the problem under control. I was particularly keen, too, to improve my balance after having one or two falls. Roxani’s classes, combined with some private lessons with her, have made a big difference and given me much greater stability. Roxani’s clear direction and warm encouragement have been an inspiration, and by the end of each lesson I feel stimulated and refreshed, no matter how battered I was feeling when I arrived. I certainly intend to continue with these and recommend them to others."

"I am a student of Alexander Technique, and have experienced Roxani's teaching over the past year. Roxani is empathetic and supportive, using her broad knowledge of body movement as well as sensitive intuition to help me in short term pain and long term change. I am looking forward to many years of sessions!"

"I highly recommend Roxani because she is very supportive in helping me to manage very serious health conditions, ie irregular heartbeat, chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic pain syndrome and fibromyalgia. These conditions can make one extremely anxious and depressed but through the Alexander Technique I have become mindful and able to observe myself so I am able to manage any episodes (pain, fatigue) that may be coming. Roxani has a gentle sensitive demeanour and active presence, which is so importantly supportive to my process."

"However fidgety or distracted I might be feeling at the start of a lesson with Roxani, I know that a remarkable sense of calm will descend by the time I have finished. While she is teaching, she is relishing the gentle soft movements of
Qigong herself, which encourages me to do the same. Whether you are practicing in a small group or even during an online class, Roxani teaches with great awareness due to her experience in performance and training in Alexander Technique."

"I have HEDS and I have been working with Roxani for a number of months now. During this time, I have found her to be extremely knowledgeable and willing to share this with me in ways that I am able to understand. She has been kind, thoughtful, caring and extremely flexible in her approach and has worked with me to find ways that work for me and my bodies present limitations. I cannot recommend her more highly she has been inspirational to me, and I cannot thank her enough for all her generosity and kindness."

"I highly recommend Roxani-Eleni. I have been lucky enough to have had two Reiki sessions with her, the first one which she was able to fit me
in on the day that I called, really helped with a nasty cough I had, she took the time to explain to me what element the lungs represent and it
made sense, after the session I was feeling so much better. I have since been back for another session which really helped me shift some
energy. Roxani-Eleni is a fantastic practitioner, she took the time to listen to me and the sessions have been very thorough. Thank you Roxani-Eleni"

" Roxani is an incredible therapist and teacher - kind, calm and deeply intuitive. She has introduced me to the power of both Reiki and Alexander technique, her experience and insight guide her to know how much/which modality I need when I come for sessions, she is flexible and caring, and I always leave her beautiful studio feeling deeply rested and restored. I really can’t recommend her highly enough."

" Looking for a local Alexander teacher a year ago I found Roxani; I don't think I could have done better. She is patient and cheerful, and immensely knowledgeable, and takes an obviously genuine pleasure in helping to produce the natural movements and postures the technique provides."
