Why there’s no substitute for experience
I think you'd probably agree that reading or hearing about an experience is no substitute for having the experience itself. So consider for a moment how inadequate words are when the experience in question is unique.
This is why I believe it’s important that I should offer you your first lesson completely free of charge. And, of course, without any obligation. By accepting my offer, you’ll be able to make your own informed opinion. Maybe you’ll agree with the many thousands of students who’ve found The Technique invaluable. Maybe not. But at least you’ll have had the experience to base your decision on.
What Aldous Huxley had to say about the Alexander Technique
For example, Aldous Huxley, arguably one of the greatest writers of the 20th century, was one of Alexander’s many notable students. Huxley had been suffering from depression whilst working on Eyeless in Gaza, and later confirmed that he was "Pulled out of it" by The Technique and Alexander’s doctor, J.E.R. McDonagh. Huxley paid both men the ultimate compliment by immortalising them in print in this novel.
But the simple fact is that even as eloquent and incisive a writer as Huxley realised that it is beyond the scope of words to explain The Technique. This is what he had to say...
And a rare occasion when words failed him...
"...No verbal description can do justice to a technique which involves the changing ...of an individual’s sensory experiences. One cannot describe the experience of seeing the colour red. Similarly one cannot describe the much more complex experience of improved physical co-ordination. A verbal description would mean something only to the person who had actually had the experience... Complete understanding of the system can come only with the practice of it."
Exactly. So why not pick up the phone or email me for your free lesson. Because after all, you have nothing to lose but your aches and pains, and so much more to gain.
