How Your Fees are Used
We have made every effort to keep the Congress fees low and ensure that we do not lose money. It is essential that the Congress break even for there to be a next Congress.
There will be 23 major teaching events that you can attend and that breaks down to 35 CHF per event for a regular registration and 28 CHF for a trainee. We feel this is an exceptional value to be able to work with many of the best Alexander Teachers in the World.
