Would you like to feel great, secure and comfortable throughout Pregnancy?
Would you like to make the upbringing of children more enjoyable and more rewarding?

Parents & Kids, based on the Alexander Technique, is what you are looking for.

The Alexander Technique is a unique method which enables you and your family to deal with:

• habits of thinking, reacting and moving
  
• emotional and physical changes
  
• stress and anxiety
  
• body aches
  
• poor posture

It positively influences pregnancy and childbirth. The Alexander Technique is also an ideal support for parents as it teaches the powerful capability of making consistent choices.
When we - adults - remember that we always have a choice about how to react in different situations, it becomes easier to find solutions. Parenthood offers many oportunities to practise that like how to encourage kids to do their homework or to be more independent.

Coping with Pregnancy & Childbirth

The Alexander Technique gives pregnant women the fascinating opportunity to understand how their body changes and how to deal with these changes constructively. For example, the natural gain of weight causes in many women backpain unnecessarily. The change of shape and centre of gravity can be a great learning opportunity to better understand and improve body balance and posture. Learning to use the Alexander Technique has invaluable benefits:

• Reduce and/or prevent backpain
  
• Improve breathing and circulation
  
• Eases childbirth

Facilitating Parenting

Raising kids is one of the most important and most wonderful journeys that parents will ever embark upon. Yet, it is also a nuisance at times.
How to make the process of educating children more cooperative and more fun?

• Add more ease to daily activities like carrying, feeding, changing nappies. Thus avoiding backpain, tiredness and bad moods
  
• Take a constructive approach to the conflicts that risk the calmness, hapiness and growth of your family life
  
• Be more positive, firm and consistent in making decisions and choices
  
• Manage time with a "slow down" attitude in order to achieve more
  
• Foster understanding, communication and cooperation to strengthen the bond between parents & kids

Making children's development enduring

"Children are like cement. Whatever falls on them makes an impression." Haim Ginott

Think once more about the quote above... Have you already recognised how much your kids copy you?
Copying is fundamental for their learning but would you want them to copy all your habits?
Children are keenly tuned in with the environment where they grow up. The relationship between parents & kids and the kind of habits that they acquire, have a decisive influence on children's personality. This determines your children's success in moving, think sports and musical instruments; learning, at school and later at university; working, how they progress in their career.
The Alexander Technique is an indispensable tool to children's physical, emotional and mental strength.

These are some of the skills which you learn at Parents & Kids using the Alexander Technique. A series of lessons teach a skill for life, self-confidence and vitality to the whole family: pregnant women, parents & kids.
