What is the Alexander Technique? |

| "I have been wanting for some time
to write and thank you for the great benefit I have
derived from your method. I think your technique is
simply wonderful." |

Letter of appreciation written by Lily
Brayton from the Adelphi Theatre |

The Alexander Technique is about change. It enables us to recognise and free ourselves from unconscious layers of muscular and mental habits thereby opening up possibilities we had never even imagined. The technique is an educational process whereby you, the pupil, by means of lessons or group classes, are taught by a teacher to pursue changes that you choose to make. |

| At the end of the nineteenth century, a young Australian
actor embarked on a programme of self-observation in the hope
that he would solve a persistent voice problem and be able
to pursue his acting career. He uncovered and freed himself
from his hidden layers of habit and began to teach others
his discoveries. That young actor was F.M. Alexander. |

By
the middle of the twentieth century, the Alexander Technique
was established, admired by philosophers, doctors, scientists,
educationalists, and many individuals appreciative of the
greater ease with which they could live their lives. There
are now approved training courses for teachers of the Alexander
Technique in many countries and over 2000 teachers world-wide.
