Pat Brown
MSTAT Alexander Technique Teacher
Leeds Yorkshire
Pat Brown has been studying the technique since 1986 and qualified from the North of England Teaching Centre for the Alexander Technique in 1994. She is a member of the Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique (STAT).
STAT was established in 1958 to maintain professional
standards and regulate training. All its members have
completed a three year full-time training course, adhere
to a published code of ethics and hold professional
indemnity insurance.
Prior to and during her three years training, she spent nine years working in an educational unit for people with profound learning difficulties. She used an approach developed by Dr Geoffrey Waldon, whose philosophy is based on the fact that all meaning comes from movement. She found that this approach complemented Alexander's ideas and the Technique helped her to look after herself and her pupils while she did this exacting but rewarding work.
Pat has served on STAT council for two years and is now
Secretary of the Society.
