Alexander Technique assists in the acquisition of skill & the honing of method. Retune, recalibrate, then start all over again. Be an lifelong student, of yourself. #AlexanderTechnique

"Pull your shoulders back" is terrible advice. Arms & hands are better deployed from a wide, released frame.

Alexander Technique lessons involve the abandonment of what movement "should feel like". Sensation can be so misleading.

"Slow is smooth and smooth is fast." An Alexander technique teacher I used to work with in New York taught me this. She learned it from working with Navy Seals, who received this mantra as part of their training. It's a piece of wisdom I'm continually forgetting and needing.

Alexander Technique is immensely practical. John Dewey stated it was "scientific in the strictest sense of the word" & "satisfies the most exacting demands of scientific method". It stands up to scrutiny.

Alexander Technique directions emanate to others. People can see them, but they don't necessarily know what they're looking at.

Gravity provides opposition so that the efficient mechanics of human structure can exert resistance to this downward pull, and go up against it. Effortlessly.
