Yukihiro Takada

Yukihiro Takada is a certified Alexander Technique teacher based in Ashikaga, Tochigi, Japan. He completed his training in Alexander Technique Centre in Galway, Ireland with Richard Brennan.

Yukihiro first met the Alexander Technique when he was looking for a solution to the movement disorder on his left little finger (so-called task-specific focal dystonia or musician's dystonia) while playing the clarinet. It was October 2018 in Tokyo Japan that he went to his first Alexander lesson. Although he had no clue what was happening during the lesson, the sound produced afterwards was rich and effortless. Yukihiro immediately booked his second lesson.

Since Yukihiro has improved a lot of things with the Alexander Technique – clarinet-playing + focal dystonia, stiffness of shoulders and lower back, knee pain, breathing, performance anxiety etc., those are the fields that he can speak about from his own experience. Yukihiro wants to help people be aware of their potential and support their power to live with ease and joy.

Beside the Alexander Technique, Yukihiro holds a PhD in physics. He is also a physicist and research engineer working in the vehicle-related industry.

アレクサンダーテクニーク教師の髙田幸宏です。栃木県足利市をベースに活動しています。

私がアレクサンダーテクニークに出会ったのはクラリネット演奏中に現れる指の局所性ジストニアの改善策を探している時でした。レッスンを受ける中で自分の変化に驚き、更に探求したいとアイルランドに渡り、２０２４年２月に教師養成トレーニングを修了しました。アレクサンダーテクニークを学ぶ中で肩凝りや腰のこわばりなどの身体的な問題、演奏時の緊張など精神的な面、呼吸や指の不調など多くの問題を改善できました。これまでの経験を生かし、様々な問題に直面している方の力になれるようアレクサンダーテクニーク教師としてお手伝いできればと思っています。
