| 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.
