Alexander technique class starting

Looking for a way to get some Alexander technique training without breaking the bank? Practitioner Constance Clare is offering a class starting tomorrow night at the Asian American Theater Company. Students of mine have spoken very highly of her, and I think Alexander Technique training is one of the best things an actor can give himself or herself (along with my class :)) Click the link below for more information.
