What is the Alexander Technique?

"The Alexander Technique is a simple and practical method for improving ease and freedom of movement, balance, support, flexibility and coordination. It enhances performance and is therefore a valued tool for actors, dancers and musicians. Practice of the Technique refines and heightens kinesthetic sensitivity, offering the performer a control which is fluid and lively rather than rigid. It provides a means whereby the use of a part - a voice or an arm or a leg - is improved by improving the use of the whole body.
(Conable, Barbara: How to Learn the Alexander Technique, 1995)
