Martha Hansen Fertman, Ed.D., directs the Philadelphia School for the Alexander Technique and has done so since 1983. She also maintains a private teaching practice in the Princeton, NJ area as well as in Philadelphia. Martha travels extensively to teach Alexander Technique workshops and to help train teachers in several training programs in the US, Canada and Asia. She came to the Alexander technique through a life-long engagement in the movement arts, largely through modern dance and T’ai Chi Ch’uan. She herself trained in the Alexander Technique with Kitty Wielopolska and with Marjorie Barstow, both of whom were first generation teachers. Martha continues to learn from her students, trainees, and colleagues.
