Workshop & Class Schedule Next Free Class - Jan 14 at the SF Pub Library

Alexander Technique is a set of skills that heightens awareness of how you use your muscles and mind throughout daily activities - it gives you the tools to reduce pain, prevent injury, and restores a forgotten sense of pleasure in movement. The technique is particularly effective for relieving chronic tension in the neck, shoulders and back, and for restoring efficient breathing, movement and posture.
