Alexander Technique (AT)
2 x 45’ individual sessions
2 x 60’ group sessions
AT is a non-intrusive, active technique that allows both your body and mind to restore some of the natural energy and balance of which they are capable. AT will provide an invaluable tool to release the unnecessary muscular tension accumulated because of bad habits and emotional stress, to increase breathing and a sensation of growth in the spine and body.
Articulated both in individual and group classes the course will focus on:
Key principles of the Alexander Technique: primary control, good use and bad use
The structure and functioning of the human body and the way we misuse it
Increasing our awareness of our habits, and how we can start to change them
Links between mind and body
To relax in activity: re-discover a natural 'good use'
