The Alexander Technique
What is the Alexander Technique? Who studies it? What it can do for you

Alexander Technique teachers can help you run with ease!What is the Alexander Technique?

The Alexander Technique offers a clear, systematic look into the underlying principles that govern human movement. When applied, these principles guide us to a dynamic experience of kinesthetic lightness--thinking becomes clearer, feelings balanced, sensations livelier, and movement more pleasurable. Within this integrated, more conscious condition, we find our actions strengthened and refined, our sense of time expanded, and our rapport with the environment restored.

Who studies it?

  • Anyone who has physical or emotional discomfort due to stress, postural habits, movement problems, old injuries, or poor self-esteem.
  • Performing Artists.
  • Athletes and martial artists.
  • Voice and movement educators.
  • Psychologists and physical therapists.
  • Public Speakers and business professionals.
  • Horse riders of all levels and forms.

What it can do for  you:

  • Reduce tension and stress in everyday activities (walking, cooking, sitting at a computer, driving a car, running, bike-riding, working at your desk, lifting).
  • Deepen awareness in specialized activities such as Yoga, Pilates, and Martial Arts.
  • Enhance presentation skills by overcoming fear and stage fright.
  • Improve skills in sports (golf, tennis, running, swimming) and performing arts (dancing, singing, playing a musical instrument, acting).
  • Learn to relieve chronic pain from lower back syndrome, neck and shoulder tension, runner's knee, tennis elbow, and as well as longstanding injuries and compensations.
  • Prevent future injuries and relieve chronic stress on the body due to improper use.
  • Improve posture, coordination, and self-awareness.
  • Increase energy and mental clarity.
