John Hunter

John has been working with the Alexander Technique since 1978, when he first came to it in response to a persistent sense of tension that other approaches had not resolved.

He trained as a teacher in the early 1980s and has since worked with a wide range of people, including musicians, actors, and professionals. He taught for many years at the Royal Academy of Music and later directed a teacher training course in London approved by the Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique (STAT).​

His work has consistently focused on developing a clear and practical understanding of how unnecessary effort arises—and how it can be recognised and changed in activity.

He now teaches privately in Hampshire and continues to work with teachers and trainees in small postgraduate groups.

His interest remains in how this work can be applied in real situations, not as a theory but as something lived and tested.
