Alexander Technique and swimming
The Art of Swimming is
based on Alexander principles and a deep understanding of the
coordination of the body as a whole. Water is a wonderful medium
for letting go of tensions. Discover your natural affinity for
the aquatic environment and find more harmony within
yourself.
It’s not necessary to plough mindlessly up and down the
pool (in fact that can be quite harmful)! Swimming can be a form
of playful re-creation. In many ways it’s the most complete
form of therapeutic exercise. Learning all of the main strokes
tones and makes supple the whole body.

|
The hallmarks of this approach:
- step-by-step development of each part of the
stroke
- one-to-one guided instruction (within small
groups in workshops) in the water helps you experience from
within the necessary coordination
- clear demonstration and explanations
- objective feedback, including
video-filming.
