The Feldenkrais Method – Awareness Through Movement – Functional Integration

This method is an inspired approach to holistic body-mind learning, leading to dynamic equilibrium.

It provides delightful and liberating experiences of what is involved in

learning how to learn, i.e. changing habits and developing new and more appropriate ways of behaviour:

for instance moving and acting without useless effort of the competitive “no pain-no gain” type.

For many contemporaries all over the world Feldenkrais learning/practice

is becoming a lifeline in an increasingly stressful existence,

with its damaging impact on mental and physical well-being.

The method offers opportunities  

• to get in touch with the extraordinary, hitherto unacknowledged, intelligence of the body;
• to develop our capacities beyond the present limit;
• to discover latent capacities of which we are often not aware;
• to escape from the prison of ingrained habits of thought and action responsible for so much stupidity and suffering in our lives, in society, and in the world at large;
• to cultivate aspects of ourselves that were prevented from blossoming since childhood by conventional values in education and socialisation - such as curiosity and vital interest in the miracle of being alive... on a planet which is just a minute part of a harmoniously functioning living universe;
• and as a result finding ourselves enriched by a joie de vivre we knew as children coupled with the maturity of response-ability based on sensitivity and compassion for ourselves and others, accompanied by growing trust in ourselves, and ultimately, through such trust the emergence into consciousness of a profoundly tacit knowledge of how to live.
