Malibu, California

No matter where you are in your study and interest in the Alexander Technique, we invite you to come and learn in the beautiful setting of Malibu, California.
The Serra Retreat Alexander Residential Workshop
in Malibu, CA is open to anyone interested in the
Alexander Technique who wants the opportunity
to work with a variety of highly skilled Alexander
Technique teachers in a community setting. The faculty
is an ensemble of experienced teachers and long
term friends. This year marks our 30th annual west
coast course.
Our workshop has proven to be an excellent introduction
to anyone new to the technique. People currently
studying will find the support they need to clarify and
deepen their work. Some of our participants are considering
becoming teachers of the Alexander Technique
and have an opportunity to meet and to work with
teachers from several training courses and Alexander
teaching traditions; some are enrolled in teacher-training
programs, and some are practicing teachers returning
to study with friends and Master Teachers. All come
to be inspired and refreshed.
Our aim is to create an intensive learning experience.
There will be large and small group sessions as well
as individual Alexander lessons. Optional classes will
be offered in related studies such as Yoga, Alexander
Technique in Daily Activities, Sports Skills, Relaxation,
Authentic Movement, Voice, and Performance Skills.
This week will offer practical, in-depth study. Study
includes several private lessons with master teachers, a
small daily homeroom group in which you work closely
with one teacher for the whole week, and a variety
of afternoon and evening classes and activities from
which to choose.
Located in the hills above the beaches of Malibu,
California, Serra Retreat Center covers 26 acres of flowering
gardens and hiking trails with mountain top stillness. A serene getaway with
proximity to Santa Monica and Los Angeles. Exceptional conference facilities
that include meeting rooms that over look the blue Pacific,
gift and book shop, and a lovely dining room that
caters excellent meals.
