Voice care and Alexander Technique for teachers
Posture. Bad backs. Stress management ... Alexander technique is known as a method for dealing with the aches and strains of modern life. Alexander was an actor who experienced voice and breathing problems on stage. He returned to the stage free of vocal difficulties following a seven year period of self-observation. When he first started teaching he dealt exclusively with singers and actors. Only later on did he realise that his technique had an application to most facets of daily life.
Voice clinics have reported that teachers account for as much as 15% of their total case-load. A quick poll of your staff will most likely reveal an additional host of stress and musculo-skeletal problems. An integrated approach makes perfect sense.
