Teach Yourself Alexander Technique, New Edition

Rating:
Summary: Not a helpful book.
Review: This book may be useful in introducing people to the many benefits of the Alexander Technique, but it contains a great many inaccuracies and oversimplifications. It is possible to learn a good deal on one's own - although the help of a qualified teacher can save you a lot of time. If you don't have access to an Alexander Teacher and want to try learning the Technique on your own, get "How to Learn the Alexander Technique" by Barbara Conable. If you want to understand the basics of the Technique, get "Fitness Without Stress" by Robert Rickover or "Body Learning" by Michael Gelb.

Summary: I wish I could give this book ten stars!
Review: This is the best book I have ever read on Alexnader Technique and I should know as I have been a teacher for over thirty years. This book tells it like it really is without the hype, the bull, the nonsense. At last soemone - Richard Craze - got it right. This is the book for anyone who wants to know what Alexander himself taught. This is the back to basics book. this is the real stuff. A gem of a book. I cannot recommed it highly enough. If you only ever buy one book on the ALexander Technique then let this be the one. Simply brilliant.
