Anthony Kingsley BSc MA MSTAT
Anthony Kingsley completed his Alexander Technique training in 1986, and has studied extensively with several of the first generation of teachers to be qualified by Alexander. He has been privileged to have learned from Patrick Macdonald, Doctor Barlow and Majory Barlow, Miss Goldie and Walter Carrington. Anthony has been the manager of The Alexander Studio, London, since 1993 where he maintains his private practice. Anthony has been training teachers in London since 1990 and assisted in the training of over 100 Alexander Technique teachers who are now working in the UK and throughout the world. Anthony is now the director of The Alexander Teacher Training School (ATTS), which offers a three-year professional teacher training in the Alexander Technique. The ATTS operates from the same building as The Alexander Studio.
In 2000, Anthony qualified as a psychotherapist. This specialisation has deepened his understanding of the mind-body link in the Alexander Technique. He has worked with, and is inspired by the Formative Psychology approach of Stanley Keleman, and he offers individual sessions in integrative psychotherapy based on a somatic-emotional model.
He has undergone acting training at The Central School for Speech and Drama, and explored Text, Voice and Characterisation. For many years, he has worked closely with actors to enable them to understand their physicality and stimulate their creativity.
Anthony provides ongoing coaching for Alexander Technique teachers who wish to enhance their professional skills. He gives workshops and seminars on the technique to the general public in the United Kingdom and abroad. Anthony also consults to industry and the medical profession on stress-management, ergonomics, and personal effectiveness.
He also presents the instructional DVD From Stress to Freedom available on this website, which provides an excellent introduction and guide to the Alexander Technique.
