Free Your Movement with Feldenkrais®
Harold Tausch
Sunday, Oct. 28 from 1 to 5 p.m.
$60 plus HST
Developed over a period of 40 years by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, an Israeli scientist and martial arts expert, the Feldenkrais Method® is a powerful and engaging means of regaining, improving and refining movement. We are all creatures of habit. For most of us, the movement habits we have learned are far from ideal. Through gentle, relaxing movement explorations, the Feldenkrais Method helps people to develop better movement habits, increase their flexibility, improve their posture, and to rediscover the kind of grace and pleasure in movement they experienced as a child. The workshop will consist of a series of Awareness Through Movement® lessons where participants are verbally led through a series of slow, gentle movements designed to bring habitual movement patterns back into awareness and to introduce easier, lighter, and better organized alternatives.
