Intro to the Alexander Technique [S-26-21]

The Alexander Technique is a proven, safe, self-care method to stop pain, stress and muscular tension caused by everyday misuse of the body. In this class, learn how our every day movements such as sitting down, standing up, and walking may create unnecessary tension in our bodies. Through increased awareness and occasional gentle hands-on guidance from the teacher, we create the possibility for change.
