Item description from seller

This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -It presents an analytical study of the Alexander Technique in the field of acting, examining its application to an actor's body, mind, breathing, voice, movement, and character development. The study explores key principles such as recognition of habitual patterns, inhibition/prohibition, primary control, direction, non-doing, and 'use of self.' It examines anatomy, posture, breathing, voice, physical awareness, acting methods, and theatre exercises. Through practical exploration with actors and performers of different ages, abilities, and backgrounds, the study observes how the technique can help identify unnecessary tension, improve coordination, enhance body and breath awareness, and support expressive freedom. The research also discusses practical exercises including three-dimensional awareness, semi-supine work, kinesphere, partner work, character-status exercises, and posture correction. The study concludes that the Alexander Technique is a gradual, lifelong process that can contribute to more integrated physical and mental functioning and provide actors with greater awareness, flexibility, and control in performance. 224 pp. Englisch.…
