Actors have been using the Alexander Technique to enhance their performance for over one hundred years.   Alexander Technique is now a fundamental part of training in many major drama and music academies such as Juilliard in New York and ATC in San Francisco.

This technique has moved beyond just acting and is now used for Meditation, Pain Relief, Stress Reduction and Sports.  Students have reported immediate effects from such a class.  Some have even reported gaining an inch in height after months of regular lessons.
