Basics

  • Recommended Reading: Body, Breath and Being, by Carolyn Nicholls. Nicholls has done a terrific job describing the process of learning the Alexander Technique, step by step, with very helpful pictures.   Particularly valuable, in Body, Breath and Being's first chapter, is Nicholls' description of how to assume a powerful posture and practice called semi-supine, which you can do daily, on your own. There is no adequate substitute for in-person lessons, but this is a great introduction and companion to lessons with a trained Alexander Technique teacher.

AT's origins, history and more

  • Visit The Complete Guide to the Alexander Technique for a full compendium on the Technique, its practice and the organizations devoted to its teaching. Also see Wikipedia for a synopsis of AT's origins with founder F.M. Alexander, as well as AT's further history and its many applications.

Walter Carrington's AT training legacy

  • The Constructive Teaching Centre in London carries on Walter Carrington's training for teachers of Alexander Technique, a continuation of F.M. Alexander's own teacher training.

AT and The Study of the Self

  • For extensive neuroscientific,  philosophical, and educational context of Alexander Technique, visit the site for the Dimon Institute where AT is uniquely explored as a basis for The Study of the Self. Recommended: Ted Dimon's Anatomy of Directing.

Alexander Technique Science

  • Peer-reviewed Research on Mind, Movement, and Posture. This site  is devoted to improving scientific understanding of the Alexander Technique (AT)—its principles, practices, reported and demonstrated benefits, and terminology. 

AmSAT - The American Society for the Alexander Technique

  • The USA's professional association of Alexander Technique teachers.
