Whether this is the first time you hear of the Alexander Technique or whether you’ve heard of it before but have never had any practical experience, why not come along and have a free introductory lesson during the AT Awareness Week from Oct. 13 to Oct. 20. A practical introduction is the best way to discover the Technique !
WHAT IS THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE ?
The Alexander Technique enables us to learn how to induce a better use of ourselves in our every day life as well as in more specialized activities. In doing so we become increasingly aware of the patterns underlying our reactions and our movements.
When time, we learn how to start an activity or meet a situation in a state of greater receptivity, which in turn will allow us to more easily welcome the changes which are necessary for our improvement and well-being.
Guided by the hands of the teacher, we learn how to be more efficient whilst making less effort, how to better coordinate and balance the whole body and how to discover more appropriate reactions to situations we encounter.
A WEEK TO DISCOVER THE ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE
AEFMAT, the Belgian association of Alexander Technique Teachers has organised the “Alexander Technique Awareness Week” for more than ten years. During the week we are offering free introductory lessons, workshops and conferences at the Alexander Awareness Day, on Oct. 13 this year in Antwerp, and in individual teacher’s practices around the country.
All teachers that are qualified by AEFMAT have followed a minimum three years training with at least 1600 hours of practice.
