Alexander Technique Training Intensive [London]
Sun, Nov 15, 10:30 AMFor teacher trainees and people with some experience who want to deepen the work. Beginners please see the Saturday class. (Though we do make exceptions for beginners who are travelling from overseas to come for the full weekend – please message the organiser for details.) **Location:** South Bank Alexander Technique Centre, LONDON **Time:** 10:30am-1pm and 2pm-5:30pm. **Cost:** £45 per half-day block. Payment is collected at the end of the class, by cash or card. [Note: Price will increase in the new year.] TEACHERS **Peter Nobes** has been teaching the Alexander Technique since 1993. He is based in central London and has taught the Alexander work in fifteen countries on five continents. He is the author of *Illusion or Reality: are we teaching what FM Alexander was teaching?* which explains what is in FM Alexander’s books, and *Mindfulness in 3D – the Alexander Technique for the 21st Century*. When he isn’t teaching, Peter builds wooden boats and then rows, paddles and sails them. **Cécile Rist** is a director, educator, Alexander Technique teacher, actress and author. She has been a certified teacher (ATI) of the Alexander Technique since 2012. Initially an actress with a love for words, she discovered that what moves her in theatre lies in the poetics of the body. Directing appears to her as a space of expression even more powerful than acting. She teaches the Alexander Technique to musicians, singers, actors, and dancers individually and in groups at artistic training schools. She regularly teaches at the Saint-Denis conservatory. *We have an intensive weekend every second Friday-Sunday of the month. Saturdays are beginner-friendly.*

Harnessing AI in Capital Markets Engineering
Thu, Nov 12, 6:00 PM**Correctness and precision in AI-augmented engineering featuring Jonny Press (CTO, Data Intellect) and Tom Dellmann (Director of Engineering, Chronicle).** Doors at 6pm for a 6:30 start, two talks with time for questions, then food, drinks and networking. **Jonny Press, Data Intellect** Data Intellect is a consultancy built around KDB+ and Q, the high-performance database and language behind real-time analytics. Jonny is its CTO and has worked in the language his whole career, coming up through First Derivative and KX. He'll make the case for Q in the age of AI. Coding models tend to churn out pages of code, but Q's terse primitives do more with less: less to read, review and explain to a regulator. Expect a live demo of analytics that are trivial in Q and awkward in SQL. **Tom Dellmann, Chronicle Software** Chronicle makes low-latency software for capital markets: messaging, FIX engines and the trading systems built on them. Tom is Director of Engineering and has stayed hands-on, leveraging AI to stay in contact with the code. He'll resurrect Maude, an academic model checker he last grappled with at university, now made approachable with Claude. He'll live-demo using it to find real issues, including in Chronicle's own open source projects.
