WHY DO FELDENKRAIS? HERE IS WHY THE FELDENKRAIS METHOD® IS FOR YOU…

The best reason to do Feldenkrais came from a student:

“It makes everything easier!”

From rolling out of bed in the morning, to turning around to park your car, to facing a difficult task, the Feldenkrais Method can help you spontaneously organize to move through life with more grace and ease. The Feldenkrais Method helps you to discover capacities and abilities rather than define problems or disabilities.

The Feldenkrais Method can help:

People with chronic or acute pain of the back, neck, shoulders, hips, legs or knees
People suffering from central nervous system conditions, such as multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and stroke
Seniors who wish to retain or regain their ability to move without strain or discomfort
Musicians, actors, and artists who want to extend their abilities and enhance their creativity
Healthy people who wish to enhance their self-image, increase their ease and range of motion, improve their flexibility and coordination, and rediscover their innate capacity for graceful, efficient movement.

Many have benefited from the Feldenkrais Method.
