Anacortes Senior College

A proven approach to self-care, the Alexander Technique teaches how to unlearn habitual patterns that cause unnecessary tension in everything we do. It’s used by people of all ages and abilities to enhance the performance of every activity, improve posture, and relieve the pain and stress caused by everyday misuse of the body. This class will be a gentle hands-on introduction to the basic principles of the Alexander Technique and will focus on everyday activities such as sitting and standing, walking, breathing, and performing basic tasks. You might consider taking this class if:

• you are working on balance or recovering from an injury
• you’d like to get through the day without extra muscle strain
• you’ve got a lot on your mind and you’d like to be less frantic
• you’d like to improve a specific activity, like playing a sport or a musical instrument
