At the Balance Arts Center we love to move. We recognize that we all are continuously in motion and want to encourage everyone to discover the fundamentals of how they move so they can move better. Better balance, coordination, and ease of movement are our goals.
The BAC offers classes through the lens of the Alexander Technique, which guides students to awareness and mind/body integration. This results in better posture, alignment, and increased range of motion.
Classes are designed to accommodate the abilities of every class member with adaptations and modifications presented along the way. These classes are great for people of all ages, especially seniors. Students are encouraged to increase their balance, strength, and stability while working within their own capacities.
How to Prepare for Class:
Our classes are low impact. Bring or wear comfortable clothing that you can move in. Private bathrooms are available should you need to change before or after class.
We ask that students take their shoes off or bring a separate pair of indoor shoes to class. If you are not able to do so you will be provided with shoe covers.
No supplemental equipment necessary.
Teachers are steeped in the Alexander Technique Principles. All are either certified teachers of the Alexander Technique or in their final year of training.
