About the feldenkrais method

The Feldenkrais Method of somatic education uses movement and real-time body awareness of your own body sensations to guide students toward the positive changes you seek. Students explore odd, low impact movements that stimulate the brain to create new neural pathways that enable optimal movement patterns and function (neuroplasticity).

The Feldenkrais Method was developed over 40 years of research by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais. He was a scientist and an athlete, as well as one of the first Europeans to earn a black belt in Judo. He applied his rigorous scientific approach and decades of research in physics, neuroscience, biomechanics, learning theory, and human development to formulate his methods. Though Dr. Feldenkrais excelled in the martial arts, the program he developed focuses on subtle movement and is appropriate for anyone.
