The Feldenkrais Method for Awareness through Movement & Functional Integration

Awareness through Movement Group Lessons
Give yourself a chance to become your own teacher.  Through these movement lessons you develop your innate sensibilities and movement potential to observe, act, sense and choose.  By introducing ourselves to varieties of possibilities and experiencing them, we develop our repertoire of not just movement abilities, but abilities to determine what is right for us; and continue to choose as our situations change.  Awareness through Movement lessons draw you to improve your functioning in standing, seated, biking, gardening and simply breathing, to name a few; or, anything that requires your body's participation.  In fact any and all activitity -- even sitting still, glancing to the side, or breathing -- involvement the movement of your body. The lessons will speak to your innate "six sense" - the part of us that knows how to catch a fall, sense the presence of safety or danger, and also the part of us that thrives on playing and creativity.  In this surprising ride through your sense, you bring together the four theaters of your being - thinking, sensing, feeling and acting.  
 
Awareness through Movement is a modality of The Feldenkrais Method, which is gaining traction in the fields of neuroscience, athletic performance, infant development and creativity.  By using the whole brain (not just the rational brain) and by movement of attention (not just movement of muscles) you develop an agility and prowess to bring all of your self into enacting your intent.

I learn a lot about how right and left sides are different. I learned a lot about how my body is organized and engaged in different situations. I learned to self observe my own body. The first impressions after standing up from the table [after a private session] were a sense of grounded-ness, a sense of presence and inner peacefulness. [And] A sense of happiness. After sessions, my dancing felt more grounded and relax, but at the same time more engaged and connected therefore it reflected on my dancing with my partner ...
