What is The Alexander Technique? Do you know the phrase “Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime”? The Alexander Technique takes this teaching approach. It involves a teacher helping a student to experience how their body feels without those unnecessary habits we all pick up over time.The student then learns how not to do, with the movement muscles, those things that are causing pain, tension, inefficiency and over-effort. The posture muscles are allowed to re-establish their rightful role in keeping the body balanced without effort. In this way the technique deals with the underlying cause of problems; this is in contrast to more familiar approaches which offer short term relief of the symptoms.
(A class size of 12 maximum is set for this class in order to provide the highest level of tuition.)
