Learning music is a long-term process. Musicians devote many hours to practice everyday for many years in order to pursue a better ability to control the instrument and interpret music. After dedicating so much effort, many musicians suffer psychophysical pressure during this endless learning process. The Alexander Technique---a Technique is considered to help people rediscover and maintain psychophysical equilibrium through being aware of old and inefficient habits, inhibiting stimuli to access the old habits, and directing the self to change them--was discovered and applied to help musicians release unnecessary physical tension and improve the efficiency of psychophysical function.

520 $a Learning music is a long-term process. Musicians devote many hours to practice everyday for many years in order to pursue a better ability to control the instrument and interpret music. After dedicating so much effort, many musicians suffer psychophysical pressure during this endless learning process. The Alexander Technique---a Technique is considered to help people rediscover and maintain psychophysical equilibrium through being aware of old and inefficient habits, inhibiting stimuli to access the old habits, and directing the self to change them--was discovered and applied to help musicians release unnecessary physical tension and improve the efficiency of psychophysical function.
520 $a There are some music teachers who are also certified Alexander Technique teachers, but very few studies have been completed to investigate how they learn this Technique, how they transform, and how they integrate knowledge of the Alexander Technique into music learning and teaching. Therefore, there is a crucial need to uncover their learning and teaching experiences.
520 $a The purpose of this study was to examine how the Alexander Technique influences the music learning and teaching of a selective group of certified Alexander Technique teachers. In order to fulfill this study, interviews and class observations were conducted with five Alexander Technique-certified music teachers. Both teachers' learning and teaching backgrounds were uncovered through interviewing and observing. After collecting data from the interviews and class observations, the narrative research method was applied: (1) to describe individual teacher's narrative, and to analyze problem findings, transformation, maintaining change derived from the story, and (2) to categorize and examine similarities and differences from corrective narratives.
520 $a Results show that singers may have different psychophysical issues and approaches to perform than instrumentalists. There was consistency among participants regarding the maintenance of personal transformation. Results also indicate the existence of happiness when the transformation emerged after these participants studied the Alexander Technique. The happiness may come from acquiring the ability to maintain and rediscover the psychophysical balance, and to ease psychophysical difficulties related to music playing and teaching.
