Use the Alexander Technique to improve posture, reduce stress, change habits and expand your awareness. This is a hands-on class where we explore the body's naturally efficient design for movement, and understand how we interfere with it through ingrained habits. We will use practical experiments to learn how to notice tightening, release muscle tension, re-establish better balance and move with ease. Anyone can learn to recuperate from stress and prevent undue wear & tear by using less effort in daily activities. Instructors will use visual, verbal, and kinaesthetic (hands-on) cues to teach better movement. Participants should be able to do gentle movements of walking, sitting, and lying on a mat.
