From the little I know of Alexander technique, isn't the person supposed
to feel that the head is being held up by a string tied to the top of it
and should be directly in line with the back? With that in mind, I have
changed the heads on your figures. I also exchanged your "1"s for "|"s,
which are straight up and down on my machine, anyway.

                        O     O       O           O           O
 O        O            /|     |\     /|\         /|\         /|\
#|       #|\      #   / \     | \   / | \       | | \       / | \
#|_      #|_\     #   \       |       |\          |\         /|
### \    ### \    ###  /      |       | \        /  |       / |
# #/_    # # /_   # # /_      |_      |_ \_     /_  |_     /_ |_


Did you see the animation I did? Veronica Karlsson has kindly put it at:

http://www.ludd.luth.se/users/vk/llpages/anim/chair.html

I'm afraid that the figure picks the chair up in a very poor manner and
jeoparizes her back over and over and over....
