RePattern

RePattern I've been teaching for over 35 years and recently retired from public school. I believe everyone can be successful given the right tools.

Three things happen here:
• music classes for children,
• movement and timing sessions for
people with ADHD, and
• movement lessons that reduce tension
and promote ease. RePattern allows me to help children who are struggling in school and adults dealing with pain or chronic stress. In music education it's the primary music skills (keeping a beat and singing in tune) that lay the foundations for literacy, understanding, and good musicianship. In general education it's learning to focus on the right things that allow children to learn and grow. In the workplace it's a vast array of skills that build a foundation for successful work. It all begins with movement! My methods are non-invasive, non-medical, and don’t include drugs. They involve listening, moving, identifying patterns, and improving coordination between brain and body. The work has many case studies to back it up. It seems simple, but the effect on the nervous system is powerful!

Want less tension? It's as simple as thinking.

Stopping is the hard part. The rest is easy, though it takes concentration.The next part is direction, as in giving directions.What we're actually after is coordination: the way the body wants to work, unhindered by our habits and compensations. That means antagonistic action in the muscles—opposi...

This is a great explanation. Alexander Technique is useful for almost every aspect of life! It’s useful for everyone who depends on the body to get things done.

Feel free to contact me for more information. I’m a certified Alexander Technique teacher. Online and in-person lessons available. Balance Coordination Ease Class meets Thursdays at 2 pm.

Meal prep is a practice — not just of cooking, but of how you use yourself while you cook. 🍽️✨

Notice the difference:
✔️ Allowing your neck to be free
✔️ Letting your head balance easily on top of your spine
✔️ Breathing and Expanding as you reach, chop, and stand at the counter

When we rush or “power through,” excess tension creeps in — shoulders hike, the neck compresses, breathing gets shallow. The Alexander Technique helps you pause, notice habits you’re choosing, and reorganize so everyday activities (like meal prep!) feel lighter, more efficient, and more comfortable.

Good posture isn’t something to hold — it’s something that emerges when you stop interfering.
Mindful cooking = less strain, more ease, and a body that still feels good when the meal is done.

💬 Want help learning what moving freely without excess tension actually feels like?
Send me a DM or email me at lena@atsfbay.com — I’d love to support you.

Midweek Pause reprise

Celebrate ease at the end of the year! Breathing, balancing the head, and sitting up from the sit bones help us use the body.

Happy New Year!

Take a few minutes to reset your body and nervous system so that you can have more ease in your day!
