Posture At Work With The Alexander Technique Workshop

.

This course is designed to give a grounding on how to sit well at your desk.

Long hours sitting at a desk or computer terminal can cause muscular tension and stiffness – transform sitting from a static into an active state.

On this workshop you will be guided into learning how to:

• Develop a good head, neck, pelvis alignment allowing the natural curves of your spine to support you
• Avoid head poking by re-mapping your nodding joint
• Keep a more expanded open posture for easy typing
• Improve how to better use your elbows for mouse and keyboard use
• Strategies to free (jammed) hip joints while still seated
• Learn to choose from three different active ways of sitting according to the task at hand
