| The Alexander Technique in the accessible format of a workshop. The aim is to allow musicians to have access to the concept of the internationally renowned practice which is rarely discussed in Irish performance technique. Established as a mainstream module of many European classical music institutions, the Alexander Technique is especially beneficial for musicians dealing with excessive stress, injury, or pain and for musicians wanting to enhance performance skills. |

The aim is to allow musicians to have access to the concept of the internationally renowned practice which is rarely discussed in Irish performance technique. Established as a mainstream module of many European classical music institutions, the Alexander Technique is especially beneficial for musicians dealing with excessive stress, injury, or pain and for musicians wanting to enhance performance skills.
The Interactive Teaching Method (ITM) approach to teaching the Alexander Technique is the most effective, direct means by which performers can improve their general condition as well as their standard of performance. During this workshop, the lecture will first present the key principles of thought and movement that govern efficiency and quality of performance; and then demonstrate how these key principles can be put into practice immediately by everyone. By the end of the day, participants will have learned about practical and dynamic ways in which they can bring more ease and comfort into their everyday and specialised activities. |
Aingeala de Búrca qualified as a teacher in the Interactive Teaching Method (ITM) for the teaching of the F M Alexander Technique in 2008. She is a violinist and holds a degree in music from Trinity College, Dublin. She continues her performing career as a freelance musician as well as a music workshop facilitator in education and healthcare settings. In 2007 her focus returned to performance, studying both the baroque violin and the modern violin, completing her Masters in Classical String Performance in 2009 with Mariana Sirbu at the University of Limerick.

The Centre for Creative Practices aims to develop, sustain, promote and present new arts and creative practices in Dublin and Ireland through the organisation of artistic events and education.
The current climate might seem to be against us. We dare to believe the opposite. We believe that culture is a fundamental value for every society, that the arts are an indispensable system of reference for personal and collective values, an example of diversity and tolerance and a vital tool to neutralise the stagnation. |
