Glossary of Terms

Welcome to the Glossary Section
Like many other disciplines and processes, the Alexander Technique uses what has become referred to by many as jargon, thus the following glossary has been devised in order to help one understand important terms used. Definitions and descriptions of terms shown are based, in the most part, on the writing of FM Alexander though are by no means official definitions. Terms are also defined with direct relation to the Alexander Technique. Please contact a qualified teacher for a more detailed understanding of any particular term
