The Art of Aging - An Introduction to the Alexander Technique

The Art Of Aging – A Secret In Health

Everyone would like to age gracefully, but very few have the tools needed to achieve this. Over time, as we age, our ability to maintain an upright posture is compromised and many strain themselves in an attempt to accomplish this – sometimes with injury.

The American Society for the Alexander Technique (AmSAT) and Certified Teachers nationwide are raising public awareness this month about the importance of health and the vital role that the Alexander Technique (A.T.) plays in keeping individuals healthy and pain-free during International Alexander Technique Awareness Week (IAWW).

This years campaign, Look, Feel, and Grow Younger with the Alexander Technique, focuses on the commonly seen benefits individuals experience when learning this work.  As a part of this effort, Center Studio, is holding a free lecture/demonstration at the Hoboken Public Library on Wednesday, October 23 at 6.00PM to inform the public about the lifelong benefits that the Technique has to offer.

Those who work with A.T. teachers often report successful benefits. Morgan Rysdon, owner of Center Studio, has had such success. Her student, Troy, reported, ‘My posture was poor and I had chronic neck pain…my pain was relieved and, surprisingly, my posture now attracts daily compliments.’ One of the unique aspects about the Technique is how an individual can learn to manage their pain/discomfort, while also looking – and feeling – better in the process.

IAAW is a nationwide observance held each October. The event helps raise public awareness of the benefits of the Alexander Technique and its natural, holistic, self-care approach to health and wellness. Visit www.atcenterstudio.com to learn more or schedule a session today!

Center Studio is a Hoboken, NJ and NYC based Alexander Technique practice aiming to help people reduce stress, assist those with chronic pain and improve posture.
