At 14 years I had ten vertabrae fused and two metal rods put in my spine to "prevent" scoliosis. At 21 (due to a Transcendental Meditation course loosening up my spine) I had them removed. Join me in a class with Hope Martin, a teacher of the Alexander Technique to learn about the most powerful physical technique that addressed what could have been big problems for me later on in life (like possibly now ha-ha!)!!!

The Alexander Technique teaches how to recognize and overcome habituated limitations within a person's manner of movement and thinking. The first and most common limitation addressed is unnecessary muscular tension.
The Alexander Technique is usually learned from an Alexander Technique teacher in one-on-one sessions by an Alexander student, using specialized hand contact and verbal instructions. Alexander Technique is also taught in groups, often using short individual lessons in turn as examples to the rest of the class.
The name denotes both the educational methods taught by Alexander teachers and the individual method practiced by teachers and students of the technique. It takes its name from F. Matthias Alexander (1869–1955), a former Shakespearean recitalist, who first observed and formulated its principles between 1890 and 1900.
