# Event Details - **Event Name**: Alexander Technique Workshop On and Off the Dance Floor - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-07:00) - **Event Description**: On and Off the Dance Floor with Alexander Technique with Brett Hershey Sunday, August 30th 2026 4-7pm Level: All Levels Description: Improve your dancing—while you’re not dancing. Most dancers focus on what happens in class. This workshop focuses on everything else. Using principles from the Alexander Technique, this class explores how your everyday habits—how you walk, sit, sleep, move, and carry yourself throughout the day—directly affect your dancing. The goal is to improve coordination, reduce unnecessary tension, and build more efficient movement patterns that carry into the studio. Instead of adding more effort, you’ll learn how to remove interference. By refining how you use your body during the other 22–23 hours of your day, you can accelerate progress, improve comfort, and move with greater ease when you dance. This workshop is designed for dancers who want to deepen body awareness, improve posture and movement quality, and make lasting changes that extend beyond class time. Brett Hershey is an Alexander Technique instructor and consultant based in Los Angeles, specializing in movement education, performance enhancement, and psychophysical re-education. He earned a B.A. from Williams College and received his teaching certification from the Alexander Technique Institute of Los Angeles (ATI-LA). Brett has taught at UCLA, CalArts, USC, Pomona College, Cal Poly, The Studio School, The Groundlings, John Rosenfeld Studios, Geffen Playhouse, Hollywood Initiative, TAFTA, Studio Institute Global, and within the Los Angeles Unified School District. Brett has also trained in STOTT Pilates, Nonviolent Communication (NVC), Tai Chi, and is an avid dancer of social Argentine Tango.
