This emphasis on sensory learning results in movement that is more flexible, pleasurable and free from aches and pains. Open to everyone, no experience necessary.

Feldenkrais/Awareness through Movement

Feldekrais Week!  Free class on May 6.  Please register for class as there is limited space! In the subtitle to Moshe Feldenkrais' book "Awareness Through Movement" he describes the process as "Easy-to-Do Health Exercises to Improve Your Posture, Vision, Imagination, and Personal Awareness." In these structured movement lessons, the teacher uses a combination of pleasant, purposeful movement and guided attention to lead the class through particular patterns of movement and action.

This emphasis on sensory learning results in movement that is more flexible, pleasurable and free from aches and pains. Open to everyone, no experience necessary.
