2026 AUSTAT CONFERENCE
DARE TO CHANGE
We're proud to announce a wonderful program for the up coming AUSTAT Conference.
At the 2026 conference you can look forward to many exciting workshops run by our experienced Australian teachers, including Jenny Thirtle, Cathy Dowden, Michael Avery, Anne Carroll, Julianne Eveleigh, Bronwyn Munro, Ric Pellizzeri, Helene Goldberg, Karen Anderson, Michael Stenning, Leonardo Canales, Penny McDonald, and a very exciting panel on personal training and the Alexander Technique with Elke Rudolf, David Moore, and Caroline Blackshaw. This is a great line up of presenters and we look forward to learning, exploring and spending time with you.
This year we are inviting people new to the Alexander Technique to join us on the afternoon of Saturday 16 October to experience two workshops. These workshops run by Cathy Downden and Michael Avery will introduce the Alexander Technique and help those new to the technique to understand the key elements. Tell your students and friends we would love for them to come along.
