Victoria Beckham is studying the Alexander Technique to improve her posture.

The 35-year-old star is said to be concerned about her rounded shoulders after years of walking incorrectly in high-heeled shoes and hopes the discipline, which helps strengthen the body and its core muscles, can help her.

“Victoria has been told that her poor posture has caused her bones to be improperly aligned, with her muscles, joints and ligaments taking more stress than they should. She absolutely hates the fact that in pictures she often has somewhat of a hunched-back stance and she hates having rounded shoulders, so she has been saying she feels so much better,” a source said.

Victoria is practicing every day and is already seeing results from her sessions. The source added, “Victoria has been working hard on getting a straight back and correcting her terrible posture. You can tell that something is working as the years of Victoria’s shoulders being slumped are over, she’s walking straighter now. She practices the discipline after the gym every morning and at night. She is standing straighter and her body feels more aligned. It also helps you cope with stress.”

The Alexander Technique is a method of changing everyday movement habits to improve freedom of movement, balance, co-ordination and posture, and to reduce tension.
