Marilou
Chacey found lifelong change flowed from F. M. Alexander's discoveries.
She has shared these changes with students for over twenty years. Introduced
to Marj Barstow's teaching in 1974 at Ohio State University, Marilou was
inspired to move to Lincoln, Nebraska, and develop her skills as an Alexander
teacher. Having an academic and professional background in dance/movement
education and mental health, she is attuned to both kinesics and human understanding.
Now teaching in Thousand Oaks, California, Marilou approaches change through
the use of delicate self-discipline. Email |
