Personal Growth Series: The Alexander Technique

[herbal1971]

I bet this is good but not better than Feldenkrais which teaches you that there is no set way to sit, stand, etc. but rather you find out what works for you.

I'll stick with Feldenkrais. :)

Sorry but he is a failed coach ... Plz watch others video to keep learn, this video is boring

[irish66]

he didn't really explain the correct way to sit at a computer, or did i miss it?

Dear Google, please take over the world soon so that everyone can benefit from Kines-Tech.

I really want to learn something about the Alexander Technique but got no concrete information from this. Why not? He could have used the sitting example describle in detail what's going on but provides no real details. Speaking as if this is something mystical is no help. His introduction basically states this is to esoteric to talk details. What a boon for this dude to bring the Alexander Technque into the corporate world. Who remembers the corprate training bilkers from the 90s?

A.T. is only hands-on. There is no way to truly explain it in a traditional sense. Via touch is the only way that the information is passed from teacher to student. Sign up for a group lesson with a few others for a taste, and you will certainly 'feel' the difference. I've tried lots of garbage, but A.T. is no bilk.

Thank you for an excellent presentation on the Alexander Technique. I'm glad the folks at Google are learning about it. I was out on disability with RSI in both my wrists - and they were starting to talk about hand surgery (I shudder!). Instead I took some lessons in the Alexander Technique, learned how to change my damaging habits while working at the computer & other activities, and am now back to earning my living as a computer programmer. I highly recommend the Alex Tech to those with RSI!

Mr. Baron is clear in his explanation of a topic that is challenging to speak about, well done! I have found great personal benefit from the Alexander Technique, and recommend it to others very highly.

[dizzlematt]

This is an excellent talk, very informative and helpful.

[beepjake]

I've been practicing the technique for over two years. John does an excellent explanation on use, and the benefits.

[Kathleendw]

I've experienced this technique and I know it works... what I particularly appreciate about this video is that John Baron describes the technique in such practical terms that anyone can immediately try this and see for themselves.

[FuManChu]

Wait... google actually... paid for this?

lol

[TheThomaswastaken]

The Alexander technique is obvious B.S.

[bluesrunthegame]

Indeed, though correct posture is rarely practiced by adults and certainly leads to back problems.
