Welcome

The Alexander Technique Centre Amsterdam is run by Paul Versteeg and Tessa Marwick, who as second generation teachers have been training Alexander teachers for the past 30 years. The Training Course is approved by NeVLAT the Dutch Society, STAT the English Society and ATAS the International Society.

Paul and Tessa with a dedicated teaching team bring to their work years of experience as performers, directors and educators in the international world of Theatre, Dance, Music, Sports, Education and Science.
In their search for simplicity and clarity they have created a dynamic centre of learning with an open environment both for the teacher training course and private practice including other courses.
