“Man is an upwardly opening and outwardly opening system…..which means, paradoxically, that he is also inwardly opening.”
Alexander Zundel

“The sessions with Alex Zundel have been crucial in my acquiring a sense of freedom and ease in my piano playing. He helped me find ways to deal with stress and tension associated with being a performer. Importantly, the sessions have given me tools to enhance my confidence at my instrument and to achieve greater security and control on the podium.”

“Forty years ago, after one of my concerts Adrian Boult told me that if I continue to conduct like that I’d become a cripple, and that I must take lessons in the Alexander Technique. Today I am still having lessons – as with music, there is no end to the learning process. It affects not only the use of the body, but also one’s views of oneself and one’s behaviour. For the aches and ills that come with the years, the Technique can work miracles.”

Sir Colin Davis – Conductor

“With Alexander Zundel, I learnt how to tune in to others and how to express myself effectively. By using some simple exercises, I can activate this when I need it; for example: before presentations, or negotiations.”

“I had some severe back issues when my physiotherapist advised me to start Alexander Technique. I did find the practice of Alex Zundel in Budapest and that was the best thing ever. He made me aware of body posture and the right use of muscles and mind. I was able to implement this in my day to day life ever since which does still benefit my back and mental condition.”
