Open Day/Workshop Back Health Day
15 March, 11:00-12:00 at the Alexander-Technik Studio Graz
Details and booking here
In this workshop we will allow for some rest together, reflect about non-doing and get to know the Alexander-Technique lying-down practice, which is about conscious non-doing. Beyond the pressure to self-optimise and focus on results, we allow ourselves to fundamentally slow down, for the duration of the workshop, and not have to achieve anything. We come back to ourselves in the good company of like-minded people.

Workshop “Back health with the Alexander Technique” for back health day, Friday 15 March, and four introductory workshops for musicians in March and April!

During the Austrian “Lange Woche der Alexander-Technik” (the “long week” of the Alexander Technique) in October we’ll be offering some free introductory events. For more details please see Workshops!
You can find all events throughout Austria on the website of the Austrian Society of teachers of the Alexander Technique, GATOE (Gesellschaft für F.M. Alexander-Technik Österreich).
We are pleased to be a health partner for the SVS “Gesundheitshunderter” programme (in the category movement) and to be able to support SVS insured persons with the Alexander Technique.
Since June 2023, Alexander Technique lessons with us can be sponsored with the SVS “Gesundheitshunderter”. The “Gesundheitshunderter” (up to €100) can be claimed once a year by SVS-insured persons. The prerequisite is a “Vorsorgeuntersuchung”, a preventive medical check-up (up to three years before the application or from the age of 40 up to two years before the application). If you participate in the “Selbständig Gesund” programme, you do not need to prove that you have had a “Vorsorgeuntersuchung”.

On Saturday 16 October 2021 we are offering an introductory workshop to the Alexander Technique for the Career Service Centre of the Kunstuni Graz, followed by the possibility for all participants to sign up for one individual half-hour Alexander lesson.
The Alexander Technique is ideal for performers and well-known for bringing about greater ease and more freedom in all movements, both in everyday movements such as sitting, standing and walking, and when performing more complex or demanding activities such as playing a musical instrument and performing in front of an audience. Many people applying the Alexander Technique also report psychological benefits over time, among them a reduction in stress. To stand or sit or move well while conserving energy and maintaining coordination is an essential skill for any performer. We will look at some basic movements, and teach participants about a different way of sitting which is better for their backs.
The Alexander Technique is usually taught in a series of individual lessons as they allow to give due attention to the individual situation, needs and habitual patterns of a student. All participants of the introductory workshop will have the possibility to sign up for one half hour introductory lesson with either Jean or Regina at the Alexander-Technik Studio Graz (Harrachgasse) which will allow them to have an experience of individual work.
This workshop will be held in English. For more information and booking please contact the Career Service Center.
On Saturday, 20 March, Regina will chat with Jean Fischer (in his role as publisher Mouritz) during an online “Meet the Author” event about Irene Tasker, her life and work, her contributions to the Alexander Technique and Regina’s research for her Irene Tasker biography. There will also be the possibility to ask questions in a Q&A.
This free and public event is organised and hosted by Monika Gross of The Poise Projekt, an American Alexander Technique non-profit organisation.
We are supporting the precautionary measures of the Austrian government to curb the spreading of the new coronavirus and have therefore cancelled our workshops and events up to 31. March.
