The Feldenkrais Method ®

Developed by Moshe Feldenkrais, an engineer and martial arts teacher, the Feldenkrais Method enables us, through sensory-motor learning, to continue to grow as human beings and to improve our physical, mental and emotional health and well-being.
This is a profoundly optimistic view, which believes that despite adverse circumstances we may have experienced in the past, physical restrictions or injuries we may have obtained, chronic pain or neurological challenges we may endure - we can self-direct our development and find a better and more enjoyable equilibrium in life.

'Movement is life. Life is a process. Improve the quality of the process and you improve the quality of life itself'

NEXT WORKSHOP

The Method is taught in group classes called Awareness Through Movement and individual lessons called Functional Integration and uses movement and perception to help us gain a better sense of ourselves and improve the way we move and act in daily life, in sports or the performance arts.

In a process of exploring various movements in different positions, we learn to become more aware of our individual movement and holding habits, how they help or hinder us, and can begin to find alternative, more comfortable and more efficient solutions, expanding our movement repertoire and self perception.

Who can benefit?

• Anyone wishing to improve how they feel and move in daily life
• People who would like to improve and refine an existing skill in sports, martial arts, music, dance or drama
• People who are recovering from an injury or are dealing with chronic pain or repetitive strain injury (RSI)
