Hannah is incredibly compassionate and knowledgeable, as well as thoughtful in her approach to teaching. She guides each lesson with a gentle direction that allows space for whatever is coming up that day, and as a result I always leave feeling more grounded and at ease in my body’s movements. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone who is considering beginning or continuing their work with the Alexander Technique!

Hannah Greene is a compassionate and thoughtful teacher. Working with her, and learning about the Alexander technique in one-on-one lessons, was a highlight of my first year studying for my master’s degree in Boston. I appreciate that Hannah allowed me to guide my own learning, while also providing insight into concepts that I had never encountered beforehand!
