About the Class

The Alexander Technique can change your life. Learn how you can prevent back pain through a few simple techniques from the Alexander Method.

My name is Nellie Deutsch and I have been practicing the Alexander Technique since 2004. In this session, I will describe the technique and share some of my experiences and ways the technique has helped me become aware of my poor posture habits and how the technique changed the quality of my life.

FM Alexander (1869-1955), an Australian actor, developed the Alexander technique as a result of losing his voice. He was determined to get his voice back and find a way to never lose it again. He started by observing how people use their bodies and discovered some interesting facts about our postures and how we move. Through these discoveries, Alexander developed this amazing technique.

You may google the technique and view a few videos on YouTube. Here's one site I have found useful to get a better idea of the technique
