Description
An excellent introduction to the Alexander Technique for all those interested in learning the technique and understanding how it works. What is the Alexander Technique? Could it help me? How does it work? Is it expensive? Where do I find a teacher? The Alexander Technique is a natural postural and breathing technique devised by an Australian actor called FM Alexander in the 1800s. It can be used in an effective way to ease stress-related disorders and in rehabilitation after illness. This guide to the Alexander Technique concentrates on the method itself, seen from the student's viewpoint. In a straightforward way, it answers all your questions about the Technique and provides background information on its development.
