Caren was a faculty member at the Rivka Cohen School for the Alexander Technique and the Institute for the Alexander Technique under Thomas Lemens, both certified teacher-training programs in New York City.\u00a0Caren has also been on the faculty of Pacific College of Oriental Medicine and currently has a teaching affiliation with The New School for Social Research.<\/p>\n<p>A former dancer, and longtime student of the martial arts, yoga and meditation, Caren brings 30 years of movement research and awareness to her teaching.<\/p>\n<p>She is grateful to her teacher, Master Cheng Hsiang Yu for the knowledge he imparted through t&#8217;ai chi, shaolin, and sword.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;header: The Alexander Technique&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.95&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Playfair Display SC||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#cd6f31&#8243; header_font=&#8221;Playfair Display||||||||&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Playfair Display&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Playfair Display';\">The Alexander Technique<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;text: The Alexander Technique is recognized as&#8230;&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.95&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Lora||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#212121&#8243; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The Alexander Technique is recognized as one of the most effective ways of changing habitual patterns of movement, posture and function. In the early lessons students become aware of their unconscious habits. Once these habits are identified, they can begin to create new ways to use their bodies with freedom and ease. Most importantly, students of the Technique learn a unique process of self-care through which they can simply and effectively modify their muscular responses. The result is greater mobility, comfort and confidence in movement as well as increased core strength and the capacity for changing behavior at will. This system of self-observation brings them to an essential understanding of their physical, mental, emotional and energetic selves, and their fundamental connection.\u00a0As students become more conscious, pathways throughout the body are opened, allowing life force to flow freely. An Alexander teacher\u2019s vision is that of an artist: the body is our instrument and we tune it to a subtle calibration, drawing on the infinite knowledge of the subconscious to become more present, vital, and free.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;header: History of the Alexander Technique&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.95&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Playfair Display SC||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#cd6f31&#8243; header_font=&#8221;Playfair Display||||||||&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Playfair Display&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Playfair Display';\">History of the Alexander Technique<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;text: History of the Alexander Technique&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.0.91&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Lora||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#212121&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>Born in Australia, F.M. Alexander (1869-1955) worked as an actor in England when he developed a chronic case of hoarseness and laryngitis for which doctors were unable to find a physiological cause.

I ask about their physical and spiritual practices and observe how they move. Next I introduce them to a system of self-observation so they can make better choices in their daily movements. I give light hands-on guidance, as well as verbal instructions, to help students gain proficiency in basic movements such as walking, sitting, bending, squatting, reaching and carrying. The lesson concludes with table-work, as I lead them with gentle touch to help integrate the lessons. Lessons are thirty to sixty minutes in length, and students typically take one to two lessons per week, over a six to twelve month period.
