The Alexander Technique -Wes Howard, M.A., AmSAT certified

Back or neck pain getting you down? How about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Plantar Fasciitis, or headaches?  Perhaps you’re just tired of supporting yourself against gravity, or want to improve your golf game, singing or violin playing.

Many chronic ailments are the result of years of unhealthy stress we put on ourselves through poor habits of movement and posture. The Alexander Technique is a practical method for learning to restore our natural coordination and physical skills! The instructor will use hands-on and verbal instruction to gently guide you in everyday movements.  You will be surprised how free and easy you can feel as you shed your old unconscious habits of movement. This class is appropriate for all ages in any physical condition.
