The Alexander Technique is far reaching in its effects, yet simple in principle and can be learnt by anyone. The Technique is hugely empowering and practical.
As we grow up we naturally learn about posture, movement and co-ordination but we also accumulate bad habits along the way – often unwittingly. If these habits continue in our daily lives they can cause undue pain, strain and fatigue.
Alexander lessons enable us to become aware of what we do to ourselves, often unconsciously, and as a result may release excessive tension and reduce symptoms of stress, ease pain and discomfort. Many ailments and pains can be alleviated. The Technique may enhance the performance of already acquired skills and assist in the learning of new skills. It is widely used by musicians, actors, dancers, people participating in sports and anyone who wishes to take more responsibility for their own wellbeing.
One-to-one sessions lasting 40 minutes are called lessons because the Technique is neither a form of treatment, nor does it claim to cure specific conditions, but is a foundation for personal education and self-care. It is an enriching skill which can be woven into our daily and frequently chaotic lives – whatever we do.
Call the clinic for more information about Alexander Technique or arrange for an introductory lesson with Rosemary Tate.
