ABOUT TOM

Hi, I’m Tom.

 

I’m an actor and workshop facilitator and, of course, an Alexander Teacher.

 

I trained as an actor at École Philippe Gaulier and then Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.​ There discovered the Alexander Technique at drama school.  I can honestly say that it has changed my life. It has greatly improved the quality of my performances, it has given me more confidence and ease in my body.

 

Anyone who knows me will know that I can often be disorganised and that can lead to overwhelm; the AT has helped, more than any other process I've discovered, to allow me to organise thoughts and  new information. The principles of inhibition and genuine trust have made me happier and calmer. Above all, I have come to genuinely believe that continual improvement in all things is possible. I have applied this belief to relationships, career, sport, fitness, singing, writing and now teaching.

 

In 2025, after 4 years of rigorous training, I qualified as an Interactive Teaching Method Alexander Technique Teacher under Don Weed and Oliver Lee. 

 

The technique informs all the work I do in every aspect of my career.
