London Workshop Testimonials

I needed a break from blogging. It is summer after all, right? Anyway, I've been regrouping my thoughts, reconsidering this website, and wondering about my next move. I still have 9 Pro Members that this website serves – my Japanese students on CareerThinking in Tokyo. So I continue the Pro level for them. Then I thought – well, why not continue the Standard too? So I decided to re-open again. Not that I care much if you join or not – the amount of money I ask you to pay is not worth my worrying about. Silly boy aren't I? Just goes to show – don't make decisions while you are on holidays in London with your two daughters and feeling sensitive and exhausted! Being called "underhanded" by one teacher who insisted I refund her $48 fee just sent me over the edge for a bit. However, I am not giving up on my mission of accelerating the integration of Alexander's Discoveries into mainstream society, by utilizing proven business, marketing and selling technologies. I am giving up trying to coach every Alexander Technique teacher on the planet to make their businesses work. I'll do what I can, but no more demands or complaints please. I'll just fire you as a client if you try that on with me. Oddly enough, one teacher approached me privately about personal coaching for her business, and I was delighted to help her out. We have agreed on a six month plan. I charge the same rate I charge my CareerThinking students in Tokyo. $300 per month. I love coaching people, but not for free. I want to work with my BodyChance students or Joint Venture partners i.e. bring my focus back to BodyChance. So I will still be writing about these ideas, my plans and strategies and offer you general advice. There is also a vast archive giving you everything you could possibly want to know - if you read carefully enough. This is a now my CEO blog: talking about the development of an exciting new global brand – BodyChance.   My London Experience I had a wonderful time in London sharing my ideas with 24 teachers and trainees for a nine hour one day marathon. Their focus and commitment to learn was breathtaking and wonderful to be in the presence of. I collapsed when I got back to the hotel, but during the day we were all totally on. Thanks to Sarah and Nikki and the AT Growing Together organisation for putting it together. Rather than tell the story my Self, here's feedback from four people who attended it… "You were inspiring, attentive, confident, and delivered the workshop really well. You managed the group and the flow of the presentation, got everyone involved, and generous in answering queries. Thank you!" from Jamie, Alexander Technique Teacher. "I just wanted to thank you again personally for yesterday. I am all fired up and rebooted with new enthusiasm and direction now following yesterday's brilliant day. I loved it all and as ever was surprised by what came up for me and what I learned." Angela, Alexander Technique Teacher. "This event was very rich in constructive, inspiring and practical information about how to develop your AT business. A true Gold Dust! I particularly enjoyed watching how Jeremy coached other teachers and trainees ('Hot Seats' & working in activity demonstrations). This was of a great value, as it demonstrated how essential it is for us to examine our thinking patterns and beliefs about passion, money & success." Jacek, Alexander Technique trainee. "Jeremy is a teacher that moves, inspires, and shows so many possibilities to implement for ourselves and our practice. This event was about how to build an maintain a successful practice. He is a true professional with vast amount of knowledge, experience and skills in business, marketing and teaching the Alexander technique. I think these skills should be taught in all schools. Jeremy says quite rightly, we can not build a successful practice alone. We all need to work together to build, collaborate and share ideas, meet occasionally, and spread the word of the A.T. to the world as effectively as we can. Jeremy Chance has worked for years with some of the best marketing and business people out there. So really seems to know what works and what doesn't. He's made many mistakes along his amazing journey; giving him a wealth of experience which he shares though his blogs. The blogs are a rich source of information, including a business plan for building a practice. It's a very detailed, personal, honest account of a truly amazing teacher on an incredibly exciting journey." Nicholas, Alexander Technique teacher. There you have it folks – come see me live next January in London if you can. Or come over to Japan next year in May for the BodyChance annual residential. I will run a CareerThinking course there if enough of you want to come... Just join my mailing list or keep reading the blog to find out more.
