The Feldenkrais Method®

ABOUT THIS MODALITY

“Movement is life. Life is a process.  Improve the quality of the process and you improve the quality of life”
-Moshe Feldenkrais

The Feldenkrais Method® is a process of individualized movement education that helps people improve how they move through their lives, in everyday activities, or in a specialized realm. By recognizing how we actually move, we discover patterns that no longer serve us, and uncover easier, less painful ways of moving and being in the world. We leverage the power of directed attention – attention to the details of each individual’s movement and body – to improve the ease and comfort of life. It helps you be more…you.

In Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® classes, we explore thinking, sensing, moving, and imagining, to discover new possibilities for ease in action. Lessons can be focused on a wide variety of movements: based on natural human development, ordinary function, or relationships between areas of the body. Lessons are usually done lying down, but may be sitting, or standing. Open to all ages and experience levels and many physical challenges can be accommodated. 

Private Feldenkrais Functional Integration® lessons help individuals with specific movement-related issues – pain management, stress relief, performance enhancement, transformation or curiosity. Functional Integration® uses gentle, non-invasive touch, and sometimes verbal instruction. You remain fully clothed during the lesson, most of which will be lying on a low table. Some lessons might involve activities in sitting or standing, or other actions related to your needs.
