New Blog and Workshop on the Alexander Technique

Cecile Raynor, owner of Alexander Technique and Thai Yoga of Brookline, announces a new blog and will lead an introductory workshop on the Alexander Technique from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., February 22, in Brookline.

The blog, OffTheMatYogaBlog.wordpress.com, helps people to understand movement in a deeper way, get more from their yoga practice and prevent injuries on and off the mat. “The way you understand and perform movements in your everyday life affects how you understand and perform yoga poses and movements,” says Raynor. “The reverse is also true, as the benefits of yoga practice can help us handle life movements differently.”

Raynor says that many people experience moments in yoga or life where everything seems to work together effortlessly, but they don’t necessarily know how to get back to that,” she says. “Learning how to trigger your postural reflexes is the way to get to that place of perfect integration on demand.” In addition to the blog and workshop, Raynor offers Off the Mat Yoga classes on a regular basis.

Location: Workshops and classes take place in Brookline or at Akasha Studio, 14 Meehan St., Jamaica Plain. For more information, call 617-359-7841 or visit AlexanderTec.com.
