Class Description

Description

The Alexander Technique is a gentle but powerfully effective movement education method that teaches us how to avoid unnecessary tension in our posture and movements to achieve enhanced efficiency, grace and poise, not just in our physical expression but in every aspect of our lives. And qigong (“life energy cultivation”) exercises are ancient, time-tested Chinese self-cultivation techniques that can dramatically boost our health and well-being. Michael Gelb, who is a longtime teacher of Alexander Technique and qigong, has synergetically synthesized these two traditions to create a remarkably effective approach to body/mind/spirit development. Tonight, he will share some of the practices he has developed to help us transform our stress into vitality and realize greater well-being on all levels.
