Many of us spend our days sitting at a desk, looking down at our phones, or moving in ways that cause significant discomfort for our bodies. In the Alexander Technique: Balanced Posture for Ease and Comfort, explore how this novel approach to your body’s organization and coordinated movement can help relieve pain and tension, promote calm, improve sleep, and allow you to breathe fully and easily without effort.
The Alexander Technique has been taught for more than 100 years to help artists, musicians, and actors improve their craft, but this method can help anyone examine our body's natural movements and readjust based on the wears and tears of everyday life. Through verbal instructions, graphics, videos, and demonstrations, you’ll learn to better align with our body's natural movements.
By the end of this course, you will be thinking of your relationship to your body and its movements in an entirely new – and more comfortable – way.
