Students learn under the gentle guidance of the teachers hands how to move and
respond more fully within the "doing" aspect of moving by paying attention to
simple,everyday repetitive sequences such as sitting, standing, walking, and bending.
Those who have studied the
Alexander Technique report feeling calmer with improvement receiving and processing
information as well as increased flexibility and circulation with pain reduction.
This can also help in assisting the improvement of function within chronic RSI
(repetitive syndrome injuries) conditions, such as carpal tunnel,neck, back, shoulder
and hip, etc.
The Alexander Technique is often used as an excellent
method of improving performance in the Arts. Students develop a range from which
to draw on for their particular medium. Acting, singing, dancing, playing instruments
have certain use related issues and all can benefit from a course of lessons.
The Alexander Technique is
included in the course of study at the prestigious Julliard School. Most Academic
Institutions will offer the Alexander Technique as part of their Curriculum.
