About this Event
MOVING like a SKELETON
Reaching arms
Monthly Workshops for Life & Living
Let your skeleton support you! Improve your posture and balance, move with more comfort, ease, and power, free your breathing, and feel better.
What would the ideal skeleton do?
Dr Moshe Feldenkrais once described his individual work as a process of looking at how a person moves, imagining how an ‘ideal skeleton’ would move with the same intention, and then exploring the differences between the two.
Our arms and shoulders connect us to the world around us. But how are we connected to our arms and shoulders in the use of ourselves?
The session will address fundamental aspects of well organised movement, including: facilitating power through clear skeletal connections, not muscular effort; coordination between the centre and extremities; role of eyes in movement organisation; relationship between the intention and action.
Join the session and learn ways to interrupt habitual patterns involving unnecessary tension and contraction in your hands, arms, shoulders, and chest. Learn innovative ways to reduce pain and anxiety, and improve your posture, breathing and well-being.
Closely related to the February and April workshops, all working together towards improving your skeletal support and the overall organisation when upright. Whilst each workshop can be experienced independently, in order to maximise the benefits, I recommend attending as many as you can.
Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement lessons consist of a series of gentle, ingenious movements, verbally directed and exploratory in nature. There are hundreds of lessons which focus on different themes and interconnections between the nervous system, the muscles, the skeletal system, and our responses to the world around us.
Each month we focus on a different theme keeping us engaged in building a clearer image of ourselves, by paying attention to our sensations as we move. Broadly beneficial and appropriate for people of all ages, interests and abilities.
Book your place for a 2 hour long Feldenkrais session and start enjoying the benefits.
Wear comfortable layered clothing. Please bring your own floor mat to lie on if you can (some mats will be provided if you do not bring yours).
