The Alexander Technique is a preventive and practical method for improving your quality of life! It will allow you to increase and rediscover ease and freedom in movement, coordination, flexibility and thought.

People are born with an innate use of themselves, body and mind, which allows for natural and light poise, manner and movement, as well as ideal balance and posture. Most of us gradually lose this optimal use of the self over time due to today’s hectic pace, chronic muscular tension, and the often imbalanced strains and pressures of day-to-day living. As a result, habits are developed which negatively affect our health, wellbeing and performance.

The Alexander Technique is a way to become aware of how you move in order to help overcome bad posture and misuse of your body. It has been around since the 1890s, developed to help prevent a variety of chronic ailments and improve general health and wellbeing. By learning to recognise subtle habits of movement, posture and thought through the Alexander Technique, we can let them go and recover our natural poise and inner and outer freedom.

The Alexander Technique is suitable for and used by everyone who would like to improve or change something in their life, or just make it easier, whether personal or professional. Examples include day-to-day movements like walking or sitting at your desk, as well as presentation and public speaking skills, confidence in performing, or activities like riding a horse, running, playing a musical instrument or singing, dancing, playing golf and much more.
