Synopsis

The ideas put forward in these talks on the Alexander Technique will be familiar to the thousands of individuals who have studied with Walter Carrington over the past half-century. If you are fortunate enough to be one of those individuals, Walter Carrington needs no introduction. If you know of him by reputation alone, you will find this book an excellent introduction to his way of thinking and teaching.

Walter Carrington is renowned for his hands-on teaching skills. He also has a remarkable ability to communicate complex ideas in an accessible way to teachers and students alike. Though each of these talks was delivered in the context of an Alexander Technique teacher training course, the reader will find that their relevance reaches far beyond the confines of a specific professional training program. The fundamental ways we think and function in daily life are the true subjects of this book.

Time is one of Walter Carrington's favorite themes, and if there is any ticket for admission to this book, it is that time be taken while reading each of these talks. For the interested reader, that investment will be repaid many times over.
