Beret Arcaya has been teaching The Alexander Technique and Voice in NYC for 29 years. Students come to her for Alexander Technique lessons from all over the New York area for a variety of reasons. Often it is because of pain: a sore back or an injury that has not responded well to other treatments. Neck pain, jaw tension, stress, breathing and postural problems are among the many conditions Alexander Technique lessons can help improve. Others desire enhanced performance skills. (Athletes, actors, dancers, musicians, and singers form a large portion of students of the Alexander Technique.) Others still are interested in personal transformation. No matter what a person's reason for studying, Alexander Technique lessons help students to re-train their often-unconscious habits, as a matter of awareness and choice to achieve poise, freedom and grace.
