Stony Brook Congress 1986 – Workshop Walter Carrington

In this workshop Walter Carrington provides demonstrations and answers questions about the technique, the indispensable basis of the technique being what we can communicate to others while we are working on ourselves. Walter Carrington was a leading figure in the teaching and development in Britain of the Alexander technique, the system evolved by the Australian actor Frederick Matthias Alexander (1869-1955) to promote wellbeing through awareness of balance, posture, and physical co-ordination. For more than 60 years Carrington made an immense contribution to the preservation and development of the teaching of the technique. With his wife Dilys they ran the Constructive Teaching Centre in Lansdowne Road London where they trained many of today’s leading teachers.
