Stretch, extend. Feel, breathe, experience. Experiment. Unblock your body and and clear your mind. Find better ways of doing things.
About the method
The Feldenkrais method is named after ist originator, Moshé Feldenkrais (1904-1984).
Feldenkrais is a movement-based process of learning, which applied over time can lead to far-reaching changes is physical, mental and emotional well-being. Feldenkrais uses neurology, the science of human development as well as physics to allow you to learn better ways to move and in a broader sense “act”.
Feldenkrais is offered as
- single sessions Functional Integration
- group lessons Awareness through Movement
With both, I have specialized my practice to address the special needs of dancers/ performers, musicians/ singers as well as yoga practitioners.
