Alexander Technique is a fucking joke. Most of the people who teach it are perverts.

guydecervens is correct, except for when he started pissing on about "energy flow" and "Tai Chi." He's just as bad as any Alexander teaching cunt.

"Most of the people" is a dangerous generalization, probably based on prejudice.

[Tyler0206]

Nope, it's a simple truth. Why would you want to put your hands all over people.

[mjuliov]

Where from did you get such idea?

[jamthehut]

absolutely wrong. dont knock it till you try it, coming from somebody who has tasted the east as wellas the west.

I think you've misunderstood the term 'end-gaining'. It has a particular meaning in the Alexander Technique. What you're describing is not what's happening the video. Martial arts references don't help, I'm afraid; the Alexander Technique is unique and needs to be approached on its own terms, otherwise preconceived ideas will cloud learning.

AT cured my back pain too, Tai Chi made it abit worse to be honest. I found it easily the best therapy. You're the first person who Ive heard didnt feel fantastic after a session- maybe you're teacher wasnt fully qualified. I guess with any therapy its the one most likely to locate (& release) your fears/tight habits which will be best to cure pain which is why I love AT.

That couldn't be more misconceived. 1stly, a birth chart cannot tell you who is telling the truth & who is lying. 2ndly, the 'rigid-body style' you refer to is about as far away from the AlexTech experience as it's possible to get. 3rdly, it doesn't cost 'thousands'. 4thly, linking FM Alexander with a British Empire mentality has nothing to do with the body-state the AlexTech rekindles: they're natural body states possessed by all well-functioning animals, incl. young humans until misuse sets in

He is NOT trying anything and especially not to get the teacher to lift the person out of the chair. As the trainer says, the teacher should do nothing. By doing nothing and observing, change can happen. The person ends up out of the chair, but there should be no effort at all on the teacher's part!
