The Alexander Technique gives the actor a way to change body-mind habits that interfere with optimal performance. Undesirable amounts of unnecessary tension are embedded in small and subtle habits of body coordination. They can be changed toward much greater freedom. Erroneous postural and movement assumptions impede our physical balance, our mental poise, our base neutrality, our breath and our availability for efficient movement. In acting, unnecessary and excess tension limits the life of the character being played. Freedom of the head, neck and torso is a choice. It can be rediscovered through Alexander Technique study, which is taught at all major performance conservatories throughout the world.
“What I learned was beautiful. It (Alexander Technique) was an art. It was about perfect posture and how to move. It was about being still and relaxed, in order to be able to 100% listen” – Hugh Jackman
