How To Learn:
PAAT Courses
PAAT currently offers a range of choices for learning the Alexander Technique in a group class situation.
Here is a summary of the available options.
Current & Forthcoming Courses
On our courses, we focus on how we, as human beings, do things not just what we do. As a course member, you get the chance to think differently about how you go about your activities. We look at how doing something with more effort than needed does not mean you do it better. For every physical action, there is a right amount of effort. Using more muscular activity than is actually needed to do the job both hurts you and wastes your energy.
