Why learn the Alexander Technique?

The Alexander Technique enables us to re-discover natural poise through awareness and prevention of habits which may be causing stress and pain and impeding our personal performance.


PAIN
You may be suffering from ill-health or simply a feeling that all is not well... You may have symptoms such as neck, shoulder or back pain, RSI, stress, anxiety, asthma, digestive disorders or problems with rehabilitation or coping following an illness or injury – this list is by no means exhaustive. You want to improve your health and well-being.

POSTURE
You may be aware that your posture is not good and are looking for a natural way to improve your posture, poise and total co-ordination.

PERFORMANCE
You want to be the best you can be - in work, study, drama, music, sport or any other aspect of life, for example in pregnancy and childbirth. Truly great performers often exude a calmness and ease of movement that seems entirely natural. Alexander discovered that this quality can be learned.

I feel the Alexander Technique has been one of, if not the most, purposeful undertakings of my life.
