The Alexander Technique
Jennifer Schneiderman, MFA, M.AmSAT
How often do we think about the way we sit, stand, work at a desk, carry groceries, or navigate morning traffic? How often do we walk away from the computer, our hobbies, or the gym with pain or discomfort? The small compromises we make performing daily activities have far reaching affects on our overall health and well-being.
The Alexander Technique allows you to find a greater sense of ease, balance, presence and poise in everything you do. Whatever your passion, grow your skills and find more joy in the experience.
By working with a highly trained teacher, you can learn how to reduce and even eliminate strain, whether you are working in the garden, studying for an exam, performing professionally, or playing a competitive sport. The Alexander Technique is a process of undoing, of learning to recognize your unique patterns of habitual and sometimes injurious tensions that lead to chronic pain, anxiety, and depression. It is not a series of treatments or exercises, but a re-education of mind and body. Alexander Technique is a tool you can master and use in your everyday life to promote a greater sense of freedom and well-being.

What students are saying about Jennifer Schneiderman...
"I had been studying the Alexander Technique from a book by Missy Vineyard for a couple of years with relatively successful results. I had some idea a teacher would be able to help, but I had no idea the impact that it would have in my A.T. practice. Jenn has been fabulous in opening new dimensions to this marvelous technique. She has the most important quality every teacher should have; she is a great listener. With her gentle and patient approach I have made leaps and bounds in my practice and I feel the impact is seeping into every aspect of my life. From work to fatherhood I have more presence and poise in everything I do. I highly recommend her for anyone who is serious or even just curious about this wonderful technique."
