Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement

This is a Community Class, with a variety of general lessons that are suitable for most participants, from beginner to experienced student. The movements in a Feldenkrais class are relaxing and non-stressful. Each class will feature a different Feldenkrais lesson. The lessons use gentle movements that are slow and with minimal effort so as to promote attention to your own sensations and experience. Some have described it as a moving meditation. The teacher guides the class verbally, and each person is encouraged to go at their own pace.

FAQs

Who is the teacher?

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?
This is a class for adults.

Are there physical restrictions to participate?
The class is suitable for almost everyone. That said, many of the lessons are done lying on a mat on the floor. If getting up and down is a problem, lessons can be adapted to sitting in a chair or even done in the imagine. Movements are gentle; we encourage you to do less to get the most benefit from the lesson.

There is a small parking lot just outside the classroom and additional parking on the street. There is a light rail stop about a mile from the site and a walking path from the station to our building.

What do I need to bring to the class?
Mats are provided for your convenience. Please bring a towel for under your head.

Do I need to wear special clothes?
Dress in loose clothing that allows you to move without restriction. Wear layers as it can be chilly when lying on the floor.
