The
Alexander Technique.
A tool for change. A tool for life.
Alexander discovered that something habitual in the
way we think and move can interfere with our improvement
and development in both the circumstances of our everyday
lives and in our wider desires and aspirations. He developed
his technique in order to help us bypass these habitual
patterns of thought and movement, which prevent us from
enjoying life to the full. Thereby freeing us from the
bodily tensions, stresses and strains which make us
feel sometimes that we are treading water, leading to
undermined confidence and a situation where settling
for less can become the norm.
During lessons in the Alexander Technique you will
learn how all these habitual patterns interfere with
the proper functionning of what Alexander named the
Primary Control, which involves the body as a whole
through the dynamic relation between your neck and your
head.
Perhaps you are a musician who plays well during the
rehearsal but allows your nerves to take you on a roller
coaster ride during the performance. Do you find the
idea of public speaking a nightmare or perhaps just
lack the confidence to have a word with you boss? The
Alexander Technique can help you deal with what is getting
in the way of a more successful performance.
Maybe at the end of the day you feel ragged, tired
and emotionally torn as so much of your energy leaked
away while you were in that traffic jam or had to deal
with teenage hormones. The Alexander Technique is a
method for anyone who really desires to correct the
way he uses himself or herself, on the physical, emotional
or mental plane. It deals with the excessive muscular
tensions we accumulate in our daily lives through our
habitual way of dealing and responding to the demands
placed upon us.
The practical procedures of the Alexander Technique
find numerous applications
according to one's needs or interest. We are ourselves
the first instrument we use in order to be and to do
things, the level of use of ourselves is obviously of
the outmost importance in anything we do in life.
