2.0 out of 5 stars A VERY mixed bag, Aug 17 2000
By John Coffin (El Cerrito, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Glenn Park is an experienced teacher of the Alexander Technique, with much to say on the subject. To this extent the book might be useful to students of the Technique.

BUT, the Technique is consistently subordinated to the whole gamut of New Age (rhymes with sewage) enthusiasms. We got Auras, we got Chakras, we got hundredth monkeys, we got 'energy' in every imaginable (but not verifiable) form. Park actually includes F.M. Alexander's horoscope!

An experienced student of the Technique, equipped with a wheelbarrow of large grains of salt, will find helpful information on the Technique, IF they can dig it out of the dreck.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, Mar 6 2000
By Claudia Summer (Puget Sound, USA) - See all my reviews
The Alexander Technique is notoriously difficult to write about, though it is, in my view, the most powerful of the mind/body techniques. Glen Park presents the Technique in a way that is understandable to those with knowledge of New Age healing. While the Technique is arguably not New Age, having been developed in the last century, it deals with energy and the movement of energy through the body to create lasting change in your mind, body, and spirit. I found this book invaluable for explaining what happens when you give or recieve an Alexander Lesson. If you can possibly find and use the audiotape that goes with the book, you'll benefit greatly. I've had many Alexander lessons. Using Glen Park's tape kept Alexander Technique effects going for me at a time when I could not find an Alexander Teacher. Both the book and tape highly recommended. You may have to search "auctions" for the tape.
