LearningMethods™ – Dance without fear or judgement

The work on LearningMethods grew out of research carried out by David Gorman as part of his teaching of the Alexander Technique. He shed new light on how we function as human beings from a holistic perspective, and how many of our difficulties stem from our ideas and beliefs.

LearningMethods gives you the tools and skills you need to understand the obstacles that are holding back your dancing—and to transform them into opportunities for growth, confidence, and freedom of movement.

Often you think you know what the problem is but can't get rid of it.

I help you:

Understand the reality of the situation which is often misinterpreted
Be aware how your ideas affect your emotions and your dancing
Be pro-active in your learning and empower you with knowledge
Regain ease and joy in your dancing and your life

How do the sessions work?

Les leçons se composent de conversations guidées, d’exercices pratiques et, surtout, de vos propres explorations.
Here are some of the dancers’ ideas that have been the cause of their problems:

Penser que l’on doit être meilleur que ce que l’on est.
Penser que faire une erreur signifie que l’on n’est pas assez bon
Penser qu’il faut répéter le pas jusqu’à ce qu’il soit correct.
You think that another person's point of view is true and you confuse your values for theirs.

Learn how to respond appropriately

We often think we know the source of our problems, but solving them is another story. Without realising it, we adopt behaviours that perpetuate our suffering.

Take negative emotions: sadness, frustration, anger... They are not the problem in themselves, but the signal to dig deeper. Yet we tend to ignore them (see our blog) which leads us into a vicious circle of repetitive reactions that amplify our malaise and can even damage our health.

You have what it takes to help yourself

Thanks to a LearningMethods™ teacher, you'll learn to decipher your reactions and spot the limiting beliefs and preconceived ideas that are blocking you. Through precise questioning, you will discover what is really preventing you from moving forward. With this new understanding, you will finally be able to take concrete action and initiate lasting changes in your life.
