### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Just skip this book.  Too costly for too little information.
  

*by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2013*

I took a class centered around Alexander Technique concepts for musicians.  This book and "How to Learn the Alexander Technique: A Manual for Students" were the two required books for the course.  My suggestion is to skip this book.  It's essentially a picture book with incredibly weak explanations. I should go into more detail about why this book is weak, but it has been awhile since I have used it and I rarely look through it after my first few experiences reading it.  "How to Learn" is better overall and the preferred book, but has some seriously poor writing within it.  I will leave comments about "How to Learn" on that review.

    WASTE of MONEY:  Just Google Alexander Technique instead
  

*by J***P on Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2013*

This is more of a promotional brochure than a book, with every single largely illustrated page (appropriate for 2nd graders) conveying the same message about a slightly different muscle group:  good playing requires smooth, flowing motion, which can only be achieved with relaxed muscles--starting from your neck down to your arches.  That's a fine message, but could have been conveyed in one paragraph of free text.  The implication is that this will inspire you to arrange formal training in the Alexander Technique, so skip this book and just Google the technique.

### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lacking any practical help
  

*by D***H on Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2013*

In a nutshell, the book provides a set of musculoskeletal drawings with some elementary-school-level text and tells you that if you are experiencing pain while playing, you may have a problem with your body mapping.  Most pages include text that (1) exhorts you to be loose in the joint being discussed and (2) tells you to congratulate yourself if you are.  Unfortunately, that's as far as it gets.  There's no guidance on how to measure or improve.  For that, you're referred elsewhere.I'm not sure of the target audience...  Music teachers might find it useful for discussing posture (a "bad" word in the book) and relaxation with their students.
