Feldenkrais™: Awareness through Movement

Gain greater ease gently and easily

Gerald Nevin, GCFP

Awareness through movement focuses on the relationship between the body and thought. Guided movements, combined with directed attention, create the opportunity for profound physical improvements and increased mental clarity. Moshe Feldenkrais, a physicist, judo expert, and therapist, developed this gentle movement system. This remarkable approach is accomplished with directed attention that is an effortless graceful exercise. It helps you recognize patterns of thinking, feeling, and doing through conscious action. As your body awakens to increased awareness, you will experience greater ease in everyday movement, the reduction or elimination of pain, and more intelligent action through the self-organization of the central nervous system. Wear comfortable loose fitting clothing.

The body naturally wants to stretch because it is important. Discover a new and innovative way to stretch by using Ki-Hara Resistance Stretching, a therapeutic form of stretching that elongates the muscles while contracting them. This allows for a deeper, but painless, stretch. You will see an immediate increase in strength and flexibility, giving you a better body posture and balance from the inside out. This all-over body flexibility also improves your health and mind. You will do a beginning series of self-stretches and be introduced to assisted stretching. Self-stretches are similar to many poses used in various forms of yoga. The difference is that you resist and move constantly through each pose to strengthen, stretch, activate, and balance specific muscle groups around the hips and shoulders. Open to all fitness levels. Please dress comfortably and bring an exercise or yoga mat.
