The members of this panel all trained with teachers who trained with F.M. Alexander, however this event will not be a panel about lineage. These panelists come together as unique individuals who all share a commitment to the principles of our work and have different perspectives based on their experiences. They will share their reflections on their experiences training, their development as teachers, and their thoughts on recent challenges and moving into the future. We will be hearing from Sarah Barker, Rose Bronec, Sumi Komo, Sue Laurie, Alice Olsher, Lucia Walker and Sharyn West, in discussing influences by nine first generation teachers: Marjory and Wilfred Barlow, Marjorie Barstow, Goddard Binkley, Walter and Dilys Carrington, Patrick Macdonald, and Elisabeth and Richard Walker.
