Movement   

The Feldenkrais Method uses gentle, dynamic movement with awareness to improve mobility, coordination, balance, and sense of self. It has a profound effect on one’s ability to act with precision, power, ease, and spontaneity in daily life. A casual and accepting atmosphere allows individuals of all ages and abilities to enjoy learning at their own pace.

Feldenkrais is a natural way to treat chronic pain, alleviate stress on joints, and improve posture and dexterity. The practice helps people with backaches or muscle and joint pain to discover new options for easier movement and helps athletes, musicians, and dancers to “fine tune” themselves for competition or performance. After class, you're sure to feel terrific!

Please be sure to register by the day before the class at the latest. You will receive an invitation email with a link to join the Zoom meeting.

The knee and ankle joints provide stability and mobility for our daily movements, such as walking, sitting, standing, and balance. These important joints can affect the posture of the whole body and vice versa. When we use them in a way that is not efficient, it can create extra force, friction, and sometimes pain. Join Patricia Wahl, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner & Movement Coach, for two weeks of learning how to apply intelligent movement to the use and function of your knee and ankle joints to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and improve balance. You will also be given audio lessons to practice at your convenience. This class is suitable for all abilities.
