UPDATE: The list of teachers became inordinately long, I'm now just posting links to other resources.One of my classmates was interested in studying Alexander Technique but he didn't know where to find any teachers in the LA area. After some research I generated a good-sized list of teachers.
Alexander technique, if you're not familiar with it, is a really wonderful tool if you have any postural or vocal production problems. From wikipedia:
The Alexander Technique is a way of working for the self-prevention of unhelpful or harmful habits that interfere with the mental and physical conditions best-suited for the health and functioning of the "self" as a whole.In other words, people carry a lot of unnecessary tension and often do things in completely inefficient ways that do far more harm than good. By putting a little mental focus on such matters you can drastically improve you posture, ease your breathing, and bring an aliveness to your body and movements that you haven't experienced since you were a small child.
Enough stalling, below you can find a whole host of teachers trained in the technique:
