“John is an exceptional teacher...transmitting his knowledge almost by osmosis. It is a privilege, a pleasure, a joy and a revelation to work with him.”
Rhona Pearce, Actor, Barcelona |
How Does It help?
Alexander discovered that sensory self-awareness could be used to bring about small changes of muscle-tone in the neck and occiput in order to release pressure on the top of the spine. This facilitates a feeling of lightness and expansion in the whole body, with consequent effects on the respiratory mechanisms.
