Alexander Technique Philadelphia

The Alexander Technique is a simple, practical method for re-directing tension into useful energy. A unique approach to the study of movement, the Technique teaches us to expand our sensory awareness and sharpen our sensitivity to movement. Through this process we become better able to direct our movements in an easier and more effective manner.

We first learn to recognize our habitual patterns of interference, which then enables us to make new choices. These new choices help us reclaim the superb balance inherent in our design-opening a world of ease, flexibility and improved coordination. By living outside the confines of our habits, we can access more of our potential for vitality, expressiveness and grace.

Developed by F.M. Alexander in the late 1800's, the Technique continues to help people around the world gain tremendous benefits in a wide range of activities. Studying the Alexander Technique can help people to:

enhance performance skills (in music, dance,
public speaking, sports, martial arts, etc.)
prevent and/or recover from injury (such as chronic low-back and neck pain, TMJ, and carpal tunnel syndrome)
discover ease, efficiency and pleasure in their
day-to-day activities
