John gained his Yoga teaching certification in South Africa in 1976. He studied with several teachers, notably Yogiraj Mani Finger, Jonathon Blumberg, B.K.S. Iyengar and Angela Farmer in both South Africa and Europe.
These studies led to the exploration of more individualised approaches to working with clients therapeutically. The Alexander Technique was a natural progression and provided an intensive training in understanding the underlying causes of what manifest as postural problems.
John began learning the Alexander Technique in 1984 and trained to be a teacher of The Technique, in London, starting in 1988 and completing the training in 1991. After working with the Alexander Technique for ten years, including the three year full-time teacher training, he began to practice Yoga intensively again and has studied in Europe and India with K.Pattabhi Jois, his grandson Sharath Rangaswamy, and a number of experienced teachers of Astanga Vinyasa Yoga.
John has assisted in the training of Alexander Technique teachers and has taught privately in London, Cape Town and the West Country. John holds a full Teaching Certificate from The Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique (STAT) and holds a certificate in Psychodynamic Counselling.
