Of the hundreds of Feldenkrais lessons that exist, some are considered classic. This collection of lessons represents many of these classic lessons and will provide you with an understanding and experience of the range and applications of the Feldenkrais Method.
While each lesson is the context for your learning, probably more significant is ‘how’ you do the lesson.

• By approaching the movements with a sense of discovery, of finding out, rather than accomplishment.
• By doing the movements in a way that you move in a way that you like the way it feels.
• By never being too far from a smile.

Moving with these qualities will bring you to a fuller, richer and more complete appreciation of the Feldenkrais Method and even more important… a deeper, more expansive and more harmonious appreciation of your self.

Power and Strength = effort…NO!
Sorry, but it’s actually not the case
One of the biggest confusions I witness in people is between power, strength and effort.
When you feel effort, you think you are being strong and powerful. Most often, it is the opposite. While effort has its place, it’s usually an indication of overworking or working inefficiently.
So how do you learn to distinguish between them?
The Feldenkrais Method® is all about making distinctions. About being more efficient and sensing yourself more accurately. It’s about the transmission of force through your skeleton, which translates into less effort and more power.
In this workshop you will learn how to feel stronger and more powerful without working harder. You will discover that many of the things you do can be a lot easier than you thought.
Power and strength…most of us would like more of it.
Effort…most of us would like less.
Come and find out how!

An article in Livescience cites studies that say sitting is killing us!

But we are all living longer…which means we are sitting even more…so what can we do?

Maybe we all sit too much, so as long as we are doing that…why not sit better!

We live in a world of chairs but how well do we get in and out of them, sit or stay comfortable on them…and in any kind of chair? And what about the floor? When was the last time you were comfortable there?

Sitting is more than just sitting! Sitting is not just a resting place, it’s also a transition point. From standing to sitting, from sitting to lying and all the way back up again.

Come and understand how sitting is much more than your bottom resting on a surface.
In this workshop you will discover what helps you use any chair…sit anywhere…in a dynamic way…using more of yourself. Get more comfortable sitting in chairs…sitting on the floor.

Get better at coming in and out of a chair, any chair, and get better at coming up and down from the floor. And all the things you do while sitting can get easier…reading, writing, eating and just hanging out!

Come to this workshop because sit is going to happen…so why not do it well!

But how do you do it…how do you learn it…how do you maintain it? What if you did things more easily, more pleasurably, more effortlessly…without your usual aches and pains!

There are so many ways that we are told how to move correctly. But too often these ideas are just imposed on us and we rarely find comfortable ways of utilizing them.

What if you learned one simple idea that could help move better and better and better… in all of the things you do!

That is exactly what we will explore and develop in this workshop!

Utilizing Feldenkrais® – Awareness Through Movement® Lessons you will learn how you can make everything you do…reaching, bending, sitting to standing and more…easier, more efficient and more comfortable.

Breathing is the single thing you have repeated more than anything else in
your life. Which makes it your most practiced habit…because ‘how’ you breathe is just that, it’s a habit!

And this means it is something you can alter, change and become better at.
Breathing is also something that has numerous ‘rights and wrongs’ attached to it. Rather than finding the single ‘correct’ way to breathe, through Feldenkrais® – Awareness Through Movement®, you will explore various aspects of breathing, what it is comprised of and how you actually do it.

Concrete things you can do and pay attention to breathe better beyond just inhaling and exhaling!

You will discover more choices in how you might breathe depending on
your mood and the situations you find yourself in.

But walking is much more than just putting one foot in front of the other (anyone who has been challenged in their walking will tell you that). And with all that walking we do, do we really understand it…?

In this workshop you will understand more of what you do when you walk and how you do it and find ways of walking that are easier, more efficient and more graceful.

Putting one foot in front of the other will take on new meaning with insights into how much the rest of you can be walking with you. No previous experience is necessary.
