The Alexander
Technique is taught through a series of
individual lessons.
During the
lesson the pupil experiences standing,
sitting and moving with increasingly less
effort and tension as habits
interfering with the body's
postural mechanisms are
unlearned.
This is
accomplished through a combination of verbal
instruction
and gentle hands-on guidance.
As learning
progresses the changes experienced in the
lesson become incorporated in daily
activities until what's learned has become
second nature. Pupils learn how to
perform the activities in their lives -
simple to highly skilled - with ease and
poise and are
better able to respond to the many stresses
in life without tension.
Lessons
are
on a weekly basis except during the first
month in which slightly greater frequency is
recommended.
