This essay illustrates the process of change that happens by the application of the Alexander Technique from a variety of aspects. First, a brief introduction about the Alexander Technique is given. Then, the concept of tonic and phasic movement is introduced. By analysing a simple movement sequence a picture emerges that requires an interdisciplinary approach to describe the complex interaction of intention, nervous system and musculoskeletal system with the environment. The holistic approach of the Alexander Technique clashes with some scientific paradigms, although research about postural reflexes and movement can explain some of processes involved, allowing to understand the changes of an individual on new levels.
