Content

A programme shaped by assessment of your technique.

Diagnose

Identify the defects and priorities specific to the profile.

Consolidate

Work on supports, trajectory, pressure and surface preparation.

Target

Address width, reflections, transitions and difficult areas.

Document

Keep useful visual records of the work and progress.

Progression

Assess, focus and consolidate.

Before

Conversation and assessment determine whether the format is appropriate.

During

The programme concentrates on the technical priorities observed during assessment.

After

The work is reviewed and realistic directions for further practice are stated.

Progress: the level achieved develops through previous experience, aptitude, practice and work completed between corrections.

Questions before assessment

Who is the 40-hour course designed for?

Can the 40-hour path be booked directly?

The first step is an assessment with Alexandra. She examines existing practice, supports, component reading and the objective to confirm that forty hours can deliver sufficiently focused work.

Is the content the 100-hour programme at higher speed?

The 40-hour course concentrates on priorities already identified. The 100-hour course remains the reference programme for building the entire method from foundations to increasingly independent work.

What does Alexandra examine during assessment?

Existing practice, the relationship with small components, supports, observation, the ability to correct and the precision of the objective.
