  • Firstly, it is up to each student to decide upon which training course they wish to follow and which centre to train at. As for "continuously getting alexander treatment at the same time to get really fit/happy", I would personally be very…
  • Interesting reading ineed, particularly your final paragraph. The 1600 hr STAT qualification is spread over three years as this is considered to be the length of time that it takes to train a student to work on themselves in order to become a teache…

  • By the way, the current place for exactly this subject is on Twitter! You might find this article amusing too: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/10/fashion/10SPY.html?_r=3&scp=3&sq=ugly&st=cse And some more food for thought: http://taoo…

  • This makes interesting reading to me. I was introduced to Vivo Barefoot shoes a year ago and have a pair of ladies boots and a pair of shoes. Interestingly, although Michael mentions that he has never heard much about shoes from Alexander people, th…

  • This book blew me away in much the same way as "The Art of Swimming" did because of its personable approach to the subject which everyone can enjoy/comprehend. No mysteries!
  • Surely there are some comments in respect of this recent survey??

  • Interesting to see that the academically-recognised Shaw Method of swimming teacher training course has now been scrapped in favour of teaching ASA qualified teachers by a Shaw Method teacher, ie not necessarily Steven himself. I wonder if this mean…
  • Thanks Nichaols, look forward to reading your comments. I have a swimming lesson this evening - front crawl has now been mastered to the point of the full stroke with breathing, so I'm delighted. I'm sure you would enjoy a few lessons in the Shaw M…
  • Hi Nicholas, I've been reading this discussion about squatting with interest as I have recently been taught how to crawl in two time (can also be done in four time, I understand). Certainly the head/neck/back relationship is paramount when crawling …

  • "Why is the easiest way always the best way in AT?" Angel, I agree with Steve - the easiest way is to attempt to inhibit all those thoughts/habits which interfere with our natural poise. In my lessons I find that there is a very fine balan…
  • Noel Kingsley's book actually explains Alexander Technique in a very easy to understand manner, perfect for someone who is thinking of taking up lessons but doesn't know what Alexander Technique involves. It still has a special place on my bedside t…
  • Hi Nicholas, What a lovely surprise to see your reply. I forgot to mention that with all this legnthening, I have also added at least an inch to my petite height, it might be more, and can now see my bust, something I was unable to do due to the s…
  • Dod (and Angel), thank you for allowing me to become a member of this Forum. I came to it via the Complete Guide to the Alexander Technique, which has proved to be a good source of reading. A little about myself - I work for an international financ…
