The Alexander Technique has been aligned with actors, theater, and film for over 100 years. It is currently taught at the Juilliard School, NYU, The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and many other colleges and universities. It's widely acknowledged for helping to improve breathing, balance, flexibility, and movement.
