The Alexander Technique: The Performing Artist's Secret Weapon
   
    • Performance Enhancement
    • Injury Prevention and Recovery
    • Postural Re-Education

For over 100 years, The Alexander Technique helped performing artists to improve skill, safety and efficiency in performance. The habit of performing daily and specialized activities with excess muscle tension can interfere with co-ordination, cause compression on joints and nerves, and contribute to pain, stress and fatigue. By learning to release excess muscular effort and move in accordance with the design of your body, you will increase flexibility, reduce your risk for injury, improve your skill in performance and feel lighter and easier throughout the day.

The Alexander Technique is taught in Performing Arts Programs throughout the world:
