Testimonials

“As a woman in her mid to late 70’s who worked with Cori Olinghouse during her residency at The Ohio Sate University, I look forward to a time when I can again benefit from her exceptional presence and knowledge.  Cori has a remarkable way of integrating her life experiences as a professional dancer, choreographer, and movement analyst with her teaching of Alexander Technique.  After working with her I felt more integrated, energized and physically/mentally present.”

- Vera J. Blaine, Professor/Chairperson Emerita, The Ohio State University, The Department of Dance

“Cori’s teaching allows us as dancers to integrate principles from the Alexander Technique such as drawing energy from the ground, finding your spring, experiencing your head-tail connection, and moving forward and up, into our dancing practice.  In studying with Cori I had the opportunity to bring these complex principles into Trisha Brown’s Repertory, thereby finding more ease and connection in difficult and potentially effort-full movements.   I found Cori’s teaching to be very helpful in turning our attention to our energy and alignment.  These subtle awarenesses are a springboard for dancing that is beautiful and full while also being healthy for the dancing body.”
