The Alexander Technique for Health and Personal Development in Cambridge and Newmarket
"For me it's all about people; helping them to recongnise and overcome their self-imposed limits, and discover a potential they never realised they had. I don't empower my students - they learn that they are already empowered! Through fundamentally changing our understanding of the way movement works, and putting those ideas into practice, we develop thinking skills that we can apply to every area of our life."Andy Murfitt Have you ever tried to change something about yourself? Perhaps to change some old 'habit' that you no longer need, or that's getting in your way? Do you know and like a lot of the principles of 'self help' and 'personal development', but somehow you just can't make them stick? Do you believe ideas like we are 'badly designed', or 'not meant to walk upright'?
Through learning the Alexander Technique you will learn about movement and how it is controlled and directed. You will learn about personal rules and the thoughts and feelings that govern what we do and how we try to do it. You will learn how to refine your movement so that it becomes smooth and efficient, and any aches pains or other problems you are causing yourself by wasting effort and energy will fade away.
When we start to learn how to move in an efficient way, we learn to stop wasting energy, stop creating "tug-of-war" tensions with our muscles, and stop interfering with the natural working of the body. This is a pretty big advantage to us. But even more than that, we become free to direct our energy and efforts towards what we really want.The Alexander Technique is not about superficial change or slight improvements. It will revolutionise how you think about yourself and the amazing body you possess -
the instrument of everything you do.No matter what reason you come to me - sore back, stress, or a lack of confidence - you will get the full benefits of learning the simple, practical, yet comprehensive ideas of the Alexander Technique.
So do you want to give yourself the best chance of success in everything you do? Do you want to discover the freedom to change? Do you want to have fun learning how?Then you are in the right place."A Foundation Course in the Alexander Technique" starts this November in Cambridge. See Latest News for details
