What People Are Saying... about the Alexander Technique At the Wilma Studio School Open House last night, I watched in semi-amazement as one person after another would glide away from Mary McCann's massage table with the same serene grin on their face. They all seemed amazed by how transformed they were after just 10 minutes with Mary. "I'm so relaxed right now," "she's incredible," and "WOW..." were some of the comments I heard... ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE is an essential component of most actor training programs. Mary McCann has a rare and magical gift. --Anne K. Holmes, Education Director, The Wilma Theater, Philadelphia, PA WHAT IS IT? So maybe it's time to treat yourself... For more information, or to schedule an individual Alexander Technique
