AmSAT Annual Conference and General Meeting

Malcolm Balk was attracted to the Alexander Technique in the late 70s when his cello teacher suggested it might help with tension and stage fright issues.  Malcolm subsequently trained as an AT teacher with Patrick Macdonald in London, graduating in 1984. Runner and coach, Malcolm competes in his veteran category and holds several age group records in Quebec.  He has been leading Art of Running workshops throughout the world (Europe, North and South American, Australia, and Japan) since 1992.  In 2016, Malcolm began training Alexander Technique teachers to work with runners in his Art of Running Instructor Training program, holding courses in Ireland, Argentina, England, New York City, Uruguay, and Germany.  He has also teaches the popular online class series, Fitness Over 50.

Malcolm is the author of two books: Master the Art of Running and Master the Art of Working Out. He is currently based in Montreal with his wife, Lindsay, 3 teenage girls, 2 cats and one dog, Millie.
