DESCRIPTION:
Sir Shecky said A must read for any one. As a college student in the late 70s, I was exposed to the Alexander Technique in England.This book will give any reader, whether they are in the arts or not, a clear idea of how they should respect and treat their body.Wilfred Barlow shows factually and clinically the benefits of the Alexander Technique. As a music teacher, I apply the principles of body alignment to my students: how they are sitting; how are they holding the instrument; how can they adapt their bodies to the demands of their particular instrument.
Dr. The Alexander Technique has a worldwide following as a method of mind and body re-education, that reduces stress and muscle tension through correct use of posture and movement. Wilfred Barlow studied under Alexander himself, and this, his pioneering book, is now a classic. Recently updated, The Alexander Principle is essential reading for anyone interested in relieving body stress and improving posture and movement.. Alexander, it revitalizes all who practice it. Pioneered over a century ago by F.M
