Alexander Technique

You may be surprised to learn what it is not... it is not a relaxation technique but can be relaxing as well as energising; it is not posture control, albeit most people enjoy improved posture; it is not therapy - more a re-education.

What it is... it is a skill you learn, you are not ´done to´ rather you help yourself. It does not seek to cure specific ailments but addresses the whole self and relieves everyday strain and discomfort as a result. It is a means to re-educate how you use your self in everyday life, how you move, rest, breathe, talk and react.
