Alexander Technique
Alexander Technique is a re-education of the body based on the principles of conscious awareness, inhibition, and direction.
Alexander Technique will be offered to clients who have an interest in learning how to use and coordinate themselves in a way that helps keep the body in a poised, toned, and balanced state, to prevent injury and move with ease.
We offer Alexander Technique in 3 complementary areas – postural re-education, voice, and yoga which start from RM128 per session.
Alexander Yoga
Our one-on-one Alexander yoga classes look at altering poses and routines to suit each individual depending on structural issues, injuries, or different flexibilities. Injury prevention and the application of these poses to daily activities are emphasized.
By focusing on reducing unnecessary muscular tension, we help you move with ease and confidence, both on and off the mat.
Postural Re-education
Our aim is to create better postural awareness in patients, remove unwanted postural habits, injury prevention and to provide them with a self- management tool to better use and coordinate themselves in their daily lives.
Learning about the close connection between the mind and the body (psycho-physical unity) is also of importance to discover the effect of emotional stress on the physical body.
Voice
For voice users, we are our own instrument. Hence, learning about how our own coordination and posture can affect the quality of our voice is very important. We aim to help clients develop a conscious awareness towards their habits around voice production.
Our aim is to maximize the potential of each performer, to help them sing and move with ease, thus having a longer lasting career.
We also aim to help any voice user in using themselves and their voice efficiently in presentations or in their everyday life.
FAQs on Alexander Technique
How can the Alexander Technique benefit me?
Alexander Technique allows you to understand your natural body design, and understand how it’s meant to move. We often learn harmful postural habits as we grow older, hence learning how to be aware of them and changing them can be beneficial to us in the long run.
Alexander Technique is a way of life. Once acquired, you apply it to activities of daily life.
- Learn how to identify and change harmful postural habits
- Self-management tool for muscular tension (body-mind unity)
- Move with ease
- Prevent repetitive strain issues (sometimes injury and pain could result from HOW you are doing an action). Hence, Alexander Technique is used in music schools for musicians, singers, and actors to prevent repetitive strain issues as well.

How Many Sessions Are Required for the Alexander Technique?
We recommend a minimum of 5 sessions to create lasting change. Since postural habits are deeply ingrained, consistent practice helps establish new movement patterns.
Weekly sessions are ideal, though more frequent sessions (daily or twice weekly) are available for accelerated progress. Your commitment to practicing the techniques at home enhances the effectiveness of the training.
Do you provide virtual or physical Alexander Technique classes?
We offer both virtual and in-person sessions to accommodate your preferences and schedule. Both formats are effective for learning the technique, though in-person sessions may be particularly beneficial for beginners.
Do you provide private Alexander Technique classes?
Yes, we offer private sessions for all Alexander Technique classes: Voice, Postural Re-education, and Yoga. Our yoga classes accommodate 1-3 people per 45-minute session and are available by appointment only.
