It took me a long time to convince myself to slow down and try Feldenkrais …

… instead of sort of pretending to not be injured and wait for it to ‘go away’, but I’m so glad I did. Already more helpful than two orthopedic surgeons.
—Shannon, professional dancer

The Feldenkrais Method ® is beneficial for everybody, but especially if you want to:

  • Reduce the impact of chronic, degenerative or sudden-onset conditions such as arthritis, stroke, and athletic or workplace injury
  • Advance your technique in music, dance, theater, sports, yoga or martial arts
  • Work, play and rest with greater ease and efficacy
  • Develop deeper awareness about how you transform intention into action

Guided by a trained practitioner in group classes or private sessions, Feldenkrais® students sense for themselves the hidden patterns of tension that cause them strain and limitation. The process of moving gently, sensing, and becoming aware introduces greater balance of effort throughout the whole body, leading to more comfortable, more skillful and more effective movement.

Feldenkrais Method Sheri Cohen SeattleFeldenkrais is an “educational” method, because movement engages the whole self—thoughts, sensations and feelings—in coordination. Rather than “fixing the problem” and leaving students to inevitably repeat their habitual patterns, Feldenkrais practitioners guide students to both sensory and mental self-awareness, and point the way to alternatives. The process is playful and engaging, and the results are long-lasting.
