How the Alexander Technique can help you exercise better?

with Carrie Wood

 

Workshop Description:

 

We will look at the principles of the Alexander Technique and how it helps with daily movements as well as exercises.  We will look at 4 common exercises that trainers and instructors use and how you can teach them better.   We will cover movement patterns for trainers to look for and how to address them for better functional training.   Educating that movement with less stress and tension is better for the joints and their mobility. 

 

Learning Objectives:

 

-          What is the Alexander Technique?

-          How it can benefit you and your clients

-          How & why we should encourage exercise with less stress and tension

-          How to help clients with their habitual movement patterns
