The Alexander Technique is a simple yet highly effective way of releasing muscular tension throughout the body. It can teach individuals new ways of sitting, standing and moving which puts much less strain on muscles, bones and joints.
What is the Alexander Technique?
The Alexander technique teaches improved posture and movement, which helps reduce and prevent problems caused by unhelpful habits. As time passes, we can develop all kinds of habits which interfere with natural coordination and functioning. During the lessons you are taught to be more aware of your body, how to improve poor posture and move more efficiently.
The recognition and prevention of habitual unnecessary muscular tension can enable better coordination in all kinds of daily activities. Along with greater ease of movement it can lead to improved posture and a heightened sense of well being. It can help to get rid of tension in your body and relieve problems such as back pain, neck ache, sore shoulders and other musculoskeletal problems.
