2018 ACGM and Congress: A Chance to Revolutionize Our Learning Together

You might have noticed I'm not going to be around much for the next couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience--it will be worth it. 

This week and the next I am attending two special events: the Annual Conference and General Meeting for AmSAT (the national professional body I am a part of) and the 2018 Alexander Technique World Congress, both taking place at Loyola University Chicago over the span of a week and a half. While both events are exciting (I am on the organizing committee for the national conference) the Congress is particularly noteworthy as it only happens every few years, will gather over 600 teachers together from around the globe, and hasn't taken place in the U.S. since the year I was born. 

I am excited for the opportunity for community, exchange of ideas, and learning. What I am most excited about is the ability to bring new services, techniques, and ideas to you in the Freedom In Motion community. So here are just a few of the things I am excited for:
  • Speakers and Plenary Session from Actor David Hyde Pierce, neuroscience authority Norman Doige (author of 'The Brain That Changes Itself'), evolution expert Dr Neil Shubin, Circlesong Instructor Judi Vinar, and Buddhist teacher Roshi Joan Halifax.
  • Continuing education sessions with Bruce Fertman (authority in human touch), Joan Schirle (founder of the Dell Arte international theater school and performance company), Jessica Wolfe (professor at Yale and expert in breath work), Pedro de Alcantara (integrating spirals) and Judi Stern (leveraging the force of gravity for easier movement). 
  • Numerous other workshops on topics as diverse as releasing hip sockets, using the inner ear balancing mechanism to free up resonators in vocalists, Alexander Technique games, movement improvisation, connections to trauma, and even slack line.The opportunity to exchange work and perspective with teachers from diverse training backgrounds and traditions. 
As you can see, these conferences are going to provide a bevy of new energy into our work together. I can't wait to share it with you.
