What is The Alexander Technique?

The Alexander Technique is a practical method of regaining the natural, efficient functioning of the body.

How we move and use our muscles greatly influences our performance output, our emotional state and mind set.

The body is a complex design of arches, supports and levers. Excess strain and pressure accumulate in this system, caused by injury, emotional stress and poor physical habits. Eventually pain results.

All this can be changed through profound but subtle re-education of muscle use, giving us a finely balanced re-alignment of the skeletal structure.

Not only for people who are ill or have suffered injuries but is of great benefit for enhancing performance based activities. Eg. Musicians, actors, dancers, singers, athletes etc.
