Welcome!

As events have kept us apart for so long, we look forward to this week to be finally again all together in Berlin.

At this Congress we put the focus on the expertise of each individual teacher, on our collective wisdom, and on the diversity and uniqueness of our work. We are striving to offer a rich and varied program that enables you to make active choices and that allows you to make the Congress your own.

We warmly welcome all those interested in the Alexander Technique from a multitude of backgrounds in the hope that we all may meet, share, and move forward into the future together. The Congress encourages the participation of experienced and new Alexander teachers alike, as well as students on training courses. Alexander Technique pupils, and any other interested people, are also welcome to attend.

With your participation, we hope to deepen our understanding of the work, expand our skills, learn from stellar keynote speakers, and raise public awareness about the technique.

In short: We will be…

Nurturing Our Work – NOW!

Congress News

  • We have a new website! Hooray!
  • Continuous Learning, How-To and Keynote Presentations confirmed and online!
    Check out the program overview
  • Attendee sign-up for Continuous Learning and submissions for workshops will open a little later, and therefore will be done separately. We’ll let you know when we’re ready!
  • Check out the full timetable of the entire Congress week.

COVID-19 Info

We are aware that the COVID numbers in Germany are quite high at the moment, and new severe restrictions have been put in place, to counteract the spreading of the virus.

However, based on these measures, on last summer trends, and on predictions from several prominent scientists, we are optimistic that the COVID situation world-wide, and especially in Germany, will have improved significantly. So that the 12th International Congress in Berlin can take place as planned in August, and we’ll all have finally a chance to be together again. Of course, the pandemic conditions can always change, and national regulations might change accordingly.

 

  • We are trying our best to maintain the Congress as an open platform for learning and exchange, while keeping everybody as safe as possible.
  • We are offering every attendee an extraordinary cancellation policy for their booking, should the pandemic or Berlin regulations make it difficult or impossible for them to attend. And, we also have a contingency plan ready, if all goes not as we hope.
  • Details can be found on our dedicated COVID-19 info page.

Congress Program

Continuous Learning

Continuous Learning (CL) sessions are given by very experienced Alexander Technique teachers. Pick two classes running over two days each.

How-to
Sessions

How-to run parallel to the Continuous Learning sessions. These are daily two-hour sessions with teachers who have deep knowledge on specific topics.

Keynote Presentations

Plenary Sessions

Special presentations by renowned speakers from outside and inside of our AT community.

Workshops

Workshops are your chance to showcase the work. This year we offer three different  durations: Mini (30 min.), Medium (75 min.), and, to dive deep into a subject, XL workshops (150 min.).

Call for Workshops coming soon… Stay tuned!

Work-Exchange

We have an incredibly beautiful space for exchanging work with other teachers. It is called the Lichthof  but we nicknamed it the Angel Hall. This spacious bright open space spanning several floors is a perfect setting for learning and sharing.

Check it out on our TU page.

Panel Discussions

The perfect opportunity to explore a variety of topics from different perspectives.

Get inspired, ask questions and join in the discussion!

Bob's Corner

Latest program updates, highlights of  events that have happened throughout the day as well as information about the following day.

Half-hour with Bob and his guest(s) you do not want to miss!

Teatime Conversations

Special interest groups – talks about a specific theme with a moderator and those who are interested in the topic.

Meet, share and learn from each other and maybe even create something new.

Activities

Morning & Evening

Activities have doubled up and will now take place in the mornings as well as in the evenings!

Running, Tai-Chi, Meditation, Yoga and more…

Open Space

A week full of events can be a lot to take in and to process. This is why we make sure everyday there will be time with no official programme. It will be your time and space open to whatever you feel like doing, not-doing or perhaps even non-doing.

Public Afternoon

Events for the general public

Raise the Alexander Technique awareness throughout Berlin!

Introductory lectures, workshops and one-on-one lessons. Flash mobs, walking and bike tours across Berlin. Activities and showcase lessons at Berlin’s most recognisable locations and sights. You name it!

Free Afternoon

Sightseeing /
Congress Boat Tour

Thursday afternoon is free.
Use the time off to explore the endless sights Berlin has to offer.

Or join us on the Evening Dinner Boat Tour, exclusively for Congress participants!

Evening Entertainment

The Congress is a place for everyone. Let’s celebrate our vibrant community. With music, games, walks, dance, movies and more!

We very much hope that you will be able to come and enjoy the Congress. We are committed to delivering the best Congress we can, and we look forward to being together under the same roof and sharing the Work that we all love, in 2022.
