Welcome to the Alexander Technique Congress Association (ATCA)
The Alexander Technique has been transforming lives for over a century, offering profound benefits for physical well-being, mental clarity, and emotional balance. Whether you’re looking to improve posture, manage pain, enhance performance, or experience greater ease and efficiency in daily life, the Alexander Technique provides a pathway to freedom and vitality.
The Alexander Technique Congress Association (ATCA) is at the heart of this transformative work. As a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) registered in England and Wales, we are committed to advancing the Alexander Technique worldwide. Our mission is to foster deeper understanding, promote education and research, and celebrate the rich history and innovative potential of this life-changing practice.
What We Do
The International Alexander Technique Congresses are vibrant global gathering of Alexander Technique teachers and trainees, international speakers and thought leaders, that come together and create a dynamic platform to explore and share the Technique’s benefits. Our Congress events honor the diversity of Alexander practice, bridging the many approaches and traditions that have emerged since F.M. Alexander’s pioneering work.
We also serve as stewards of the Alexander Technique’s legacy, safeguarding essential trademarks, domain names, intellectual property, and other assets vital to the Congress and its mission. With a Board of 11 experienced Alexander Teachers from the USA, UK, and Europe—including former Congress Directors—we ensure effective governance and transparency while drawing on a wealth of expertise.
Our Vision

Support Research: Highlighting studies that demonstrate its effectiveness in areas like pain management, stress reduction, and education.
Empower Teachers and Trainees: Providing opportunities for connection, growth, and collaboration within the Alexander community.
