Balance is compromised by rigidity, laxness, reduced awareness and by fear. Alexander Technique improves postural support and adaptability of muscle activity, enabling us to use an appropriate amount of muscle activity so that we are neither too rigid nor too lax. It helps us to have greater awareness of where our body is as a whole in space and how the parts are moving in relation to other parts, as well as the surrounding space. We will explore some simple ways to investigate these aspects of Alexander Technique in relation to balance and presence. Read more
