On-Campus Recreation
Alexander Technique: One-on-One
The Alexander Technique is a method for analyzing movement patterns, releasing tension, and relieving pain. Students learn to change movements that interfere with performance and comfort. They increase self-awareness and find practical ways to manage everyday stress and rediscover their natural poise.
Students can use the time to explore performance and practice issues, to treat and/or prevent stress and injury, and to release unneeded tension.
Students can now take a maximum of two half hour individual sessions, and are encouraged to sign up for both. Two sessions are definitely better than one! Students should also sign up for consecutive sessions, for example, both dates in Feb, or March, or April. The learning happens better and more easily when the experiences are close together.
Sessions meet at 1112 Boylston Street, studio 2B.
Contact Karen Marshall, Alexander Technique Teacher, at karensmarshall@yahoo.com to schedule. When signing up, students should list the day(s) and time they want. Sessions will be filled on a first come/first served basis.
