The Alexander Technique by Richard Brennan
A simple yet profound way of releasing tension throughout the body, the Alexander Technique teaches new ways of sitting, standing and moving to enable more graceful movements and minimise stress and strain on the muscular system.
The Alexander Technique Manual features specially commissioned photographs which demonstrate the exercises and includes special sections on sport, pregnancy and the workplace as well as the history behind the technique.
Accessible to all, many famous people from John Cleese, George Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley and the Queen Mother have spoken highly of the benefits that can be derived from practising it.
