ALEXANDER REFORMER

ALEXANDER PILATES REFORMER

REFORMER studios have opened up in multiple locations. Mostly they are teaching gym workout exercises on a moving carriage. This is not what the Reformer was intended for. The scope of the Reformer is to work the deep internal system. I have two Reformer machines and I teach Joseph Pilates original system with the Alexander Technique. This creates a powerful flow – opening up the whole body.

This website introduces the thought that Pilates and the Alexander technique were made for each other. They both work the whole system. Both emphasise the Widening and Lengthening of the whole body. Both focus on ‘Breath’. Both focus on rearranging the skeletal parts into an optimal alignment resulting in ‘good use of self’. Both are Restorative. Both result in a more mindful way of living the everyday life.

The Alexander Technique will teach you the skills needed to powerfully improve your “use of self” in all movements and all aspects of your life. It teaches you how to “tune” your body to efficiency – giving you a new sense of “active balance”. It opens a “pathway” of change – changing how you think and feel. In a lesson the student actively participates in the learning – in this way becoming more aware of the Body and Mind in Action. The lessons will open a pathways of change which will bring about great poise and ease of movement. For more information you can refer to the STAT Website at alexandertechnique.co.uk
