"Always remember:  You are never given an obstacle that you cannot overcome"

Rebbe Nachman

What students say...........

Karla has introduced my body and mind to a whole new way of movement which feels very natural, comes easily, and has helped tremendously with the chronic pain I had been experiencing for over a year.

As a dancer and yoga teacher I though I knew everything there was to know about every day movement and how to heal my body.  But when a knee injury got progressively worse instead of better, to the point that I was walking with a cane, I started working with Karla.  I felt immediately better after the first session and progressively was able to gain almost full recovery within just a handful of sessions!  This amazed me, as none of the western style remedies such as orthopedic doctors, chiropractor, and physical therapists I had seen, were able to achieve the same results in the whole year that I had suffered and sought them out for help.

The Alexander work we've done has also had benefits I did not anticipate.  I had soreness and tension released from my neck and shoulder area which had plagued me for years, but which I had just come to accept as part of life.  Through working with Karla my whole way of standing, sitting and walking has been gently re-organized.  I feel overall more stable, flexible, relaxed and most importantly free of pain!

Karla's massage work is a true compliment to the Alexander Technique.  With a soothing and effective touch, she moves energy in the muscles that is blocked and tight.  I used to be frustrated with massage therapists because I never felt like they worked the muscles hard enough or deep enough.  But Karla seems to be able to get directly to the core of the nervous system without having to dig deep and press hard.  Her hands seem to gravitate intuitively to areas of stress that need attention.  And her foot Reflexology is bliss!
