About Tim Kjeldsen
I met the Alexander Technique whilst training as an actor at Dartington College of Arts in Devon in the 1970’s. I was so impressed with the changes it made to me, physically and psychologically that I began training as an Alexander teacher immediately after finishing the course. Since 1984 I have worked in full time practice in Cardiff. I helped set up the Alexander Technique teaching team at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and still teach there.
I have the unusual distinction of having trained twice as an
Alexander teacher! In 1997, I met Don Weed whose Interactive
Teaching Method I found to shine new light upon the work. i
qualified with him in 2001. I now draw on both my trainings in my
approach to teaching.
I am particularly interested in the Alexander Technique as a method
of self-development and in exploring its connections with
psychology and philosophy. However, as a keen amateur musician, I
continue to appreciate the simple, practical value that the
Technique has in helping me do things more easily without
strain.
