Mike Rothman

Hi, my name is Michael Rothman. I'm a multi-instrumentalist, music producer and Alexander Technique teacher from Brazil with more than 20 years of musical practice and more than 15 years of music teaching experience in several different settings. I play drum kit, transverse flute, saxophone, percussion, as well as some piano, guitar and bass. I came to England in 2015 to study to become a teacher of the Alexander Technique, which gives me a different perspective on musical education with a great understanding of instrument technique and how to learn any instrument without strain or effort. Focusing on our thinking process and emotional expression, I’m always looking for enjoyment and purpose in my students' practice. Having studied with big names of Brazilian Jazz in Rio de Janeiro to deeply understand instrumental music, having played with award-winning groups in Brazil, playing over all Europe and Brazil as a session musician, from recording, mixing and composing my own album, I have a wide range of knowledge to pass ahead. I’m extremely happy to be able to influence people's lives with my knowledge of music and passion for music practice.
