Learn how, with Alexander Technique

  • Alexander Technique (AT) is a holistic, skills-based self-care practice. AT lessons teach people how to improve their posture and balance, how to move with less effort—and without pain. A growing body of research supports AT's many benefits and explains how it works.


  • AT can improve the quality of your upright stature—the way you stand, sit, and walk, all day, every day—and make you look and feel taller. Using your AT skills can help you function better, freeing you to be your best self.  


  • AT is gentle. It doesn't involve exercises or special equipment. Instead, you'll finally learn the best way to use the equipment you were born with, in everyday life.

Enjoy personalized, hands-on lessons

  • You'll receive private, hands-on AT lessons with Elizabeth Hurwitt in her teaching studio, betterATbeing,


  • In your AT lessons you will learn to recognize your own habits of excessive tension, so you can let them go.


  • Then, with a deeper understanding of how you and your body work, you can make better choices.

Move mindfully, for well-being and performance

  • With regular practice of AT, you can move more freely, manage stress, and breathe, speak or sing with greater freedom. And you can be more mindful in all you do.


  • Your new awareness and AT skills will help you to generate your own well-being, instead of discomfort and fatigue. You can do better at work and play with better coordination and perform at your best—and hold your own as you get older.

SATISFIED STUDENTS

  • To say Elizabeth and Alexander Technique have totally changed my life is a complete understatement...I feel as though Elizabeth is giving me the tools to live more consciously in my body, ultimately giving me the power to heal myself (and live more pain free!) And while Alexander Technique may seem mysterious at first, Elizabeth leads her practice with a down-to-earth warmth that is palpable...with plenty of clever analogies along the way. I’m never short of “aha moments” every week. Cannot recommend enough.

-- Ronnie Dieterich, Hair Stylist

  • I found Elizabeth to be an empathetic and intuitive teacher, and she makes learning the Alexander Technique a joy. Elizabeth was able to creatively adapt to my particular needs and make a real impact with each lesson. Working with Elizabeth will help you feel more in tune with your body and movement, and enable you to make long-lasting changes to stop habits that create and perpetuate pain and discomfort.

-- Kathleen Shelby, Recruiter

  • I had the great pleasure of studying AT with Elizabeth for a few months just before the shutdown. I was working in busy, high end restaurants, and suffering from back pain and incredibly sore ankles -- making walking nearly impossible after coming home. My lessons with Elizabeth made a massive difference. Not only did all the pain go away, but so did the stress . . . I could always feel a sense of relief from our sessions. More importantly she gave me the necessary skills to take it with me on my own. Thank you Elizabeth! 

-- Kyle Liebovitch, Actor 

  •   Elizabeth and the Alexander Technique was – and still is – a big help with both my balance and mobility problems. I can even do some stairs again.

-– Jon B, Writer

  •  Before I started seeing Elizabeth, I suffered from noticeably bad posture and chronic upper back pain from my creative practices and periods of working long hours at a computer. She’s given me the tools to take into my day-to-day life to feel truly embodied and mostly pain-free. Elizabeth keeps the lessons dynamic and fun even after seeing her for over a year now. And I feel and look inches taller than I ever did before.  

--  Meredith Lippincott, Production Designer, TV & Film

  

  •  I always look forward to my weekly sessions with Elizabeth. She is a gifted and thoughtful teacher. I leave each lesson feeling more attuned to my body—more settled and grounded, but also almost taller somehow. And I carry that feeling with me through the following week. 

--  Shax Riegler, Magazine Editor
