Lighten Up
   
 

Alexander Technique teachers give up! No, not the surrendering kind of giving-up, - the upbeat, uplifting and upright kind of up. Lest we take ourselves too seriously, this page offers some lighter views of the Alexander Technique.

As the Technique gains public recognition, it is even endorsed by  Kermit The Frog;
Making movies like the Muppet Christmas Carol and The Muppet Treasure Island was a big departure for us. For the first time , we had to portray characters other than ourselves. For me that meant going  back to acting school to prepare for my roles in these movies. I took classes in the Staninslavski Method, Meisner Training, the Alexander Technique, Brechtian Acting, and Method Acting before finally settling on that time-honored Muppet method of Over Acting.
