Proper form and degree of muscular tension are as important as how strenuously or how frequently you exercise. With the Alexander Technique you gain the skills to move with ease and prevent pain while you improve breathing, balance, posture and endurance. Together you and your instructor explore how to solve particular movement problems to optimize your performance. Learning principles of efficient movement enables you to improve overall performance and prevent injury.
