Alexander Technique is a tool by which we can move into the available state, stepping out of the rigidity and awkwardness that stems from trying to dance . Because dancing, like playing, works best when it happens for its own sake, when any goal you may have is subordinated to the process by which the goal may, or may not, ultimately be attained.

The opposite of that fluid, immersive, dare I say blissful experience is one of being stuck in your head, of trying to ‘get it right’, of worrying about being judged.
