    Most people come to Alexander Technique because of back trouble or injury. I did, way back early in my career as a bass player. And it helps prevent injury, and you can get better. Worked for me, definitely . . . 

    The other part is that you learn to move more efficiently, and suddenly things get freer and easier. As a performer it really opened me up. More expressive, swinging. Even fun! 

    I've seen the Alexander Technique help people in both of these ways so many times that I find it hard to try to sell it as just pain relief. I'd rather offer the twofer: you can deal with your problem-pain, tension, posture, etc., and you can connect more with your music, or any sort of performance, or any kind of job or avocation. 

    Class most Tuesdays at 7pm; most Mondays at noon. Or set up a private lesson. Or ask me a question.
