The Australian founder of the technique, F. M. Alexander, was a late-nineteenth-century Shakespearean orator who lost his voice from projecting in performance. He attempted to solve his voice loss problem through self-observation. This effort evolved into nine years of intense observation and adjustment of his own movement patterns. He developed a system of concepts for healthy, balanced body movement. These concepts - balance, directing, grounding, inhibition, and opposition - apply readily to everyday activities, sports, and musical performance.
