The world famous classic by the originator of the Alexander
Technique, with a new perspective by Anthony Kingsley. Frederick
Matthias Alexander was born in Tasmania in 1869. In his twenties,
he became a professional reciter of dramatic pieces. After almost
completely losing his voice he pioneered a method of improving the
'use' of his body musculature in all positions and movements and
cured his vocal problems without medical aid. Alexander then
realised that most people stood, sat and moved in a defective
manner and that incorrect 'use of the self' might be the cause of
much human suffering. He moved to London and established a school,
publishing several books and achieving success, with
recommendations from famous contemporaries such as Aldous Huxley
and Sir Stafford Cripps. Alexander died in 1955 but his 'principle'
lives on through the work of many teachers of his method.
