In 2024, the ART of Releasing presents an array of engaging group class options: Mondays in June, 6:30-8pm we will be offering AT for Musicians: Introduction to the Alexander Technique (AT). This class is an Introduction to the Alexander Technique (AT) at the Quaker Meeting House in Storrs. (Online option available) . The syllabus will be adapted based on the needs and desires of the participants who register but please bring your instruments (and voice)!
The Alexander Technique is a method for improving posture, coordination, and overall movement. It was developed in the late 19th century and is primarily focused on helping individuals become more aware of their habitual patterns of movement and posture. It emphasizes the relationship between the head, neck, and back, and how these elements influence overall bodily coordination. By becoming conscious of these patterns, individuals can learn to release unnecessary tension and move in a more balanced and efficient manner.
Practitioners of the Alexander Technique often work with students in a one-on-one setting or in groups, providing gentle hands-on guidance and verbal cues to help them become more aware of their movements and postural habits. The goal is to re-educate the body and promote more natural, coordinated movement.
The Alexander Technique is used by people from various backgrounds, including performers (actors, musicians), athletes, people dealing with chronic pain or musculoskeletal issues, and anyone interested in improving their overall movement and well-being.
Led by certified Alexander Technique specialist, Kristin Mozeiko, DMA she is a professional musician, educator, multi-instrumentalists, and an Alexander Technique (AT) teacher who specializes in helping musicians to play pain free, remove technical barriers, and learn to sing and perform with less stress and more ease and freedom. There are only be 15 spaces available in the first class and 8 spaces for the series. If there is a demand, a second session could be opened.
