How much do you know about the Alexander Technique?

Happy New Year to all the grown up readers from the Alexander technique

Alexander was called the 'Breathing Man' as we all know breathing is pretty important to staying alive, but do any of us do it? No, not really. Well, okay we might do a bit just the bare essentials but we do not breathe enough or easily.

That is the question! Can Alexander technique be the answer?

I was very lucky that I met my husband, like so many people do, at work. He arrived on my doorstep for Alexander technique lessons.

A number of years ago I had a client who worked in the advertising industry. He had had about 30 lessons and one day when he came in he reported to me that his colleagues were treating him differently.

Before I went to train to become an Alexander technique teacher, I was gifted a trip to Paris to meet and work with Professor Alfred Tomatis.

I was once asked to do an assessment for the company Johnson and Johnson, and from that assessment I concluded that education ruins your posture.

This is my equation for life. I truly believe that this is the secret to growing 'young' gracefully.
