An Introduction…

Feldenkrais is a movement method centred around awareness, ease and learning about ourselves through movement. Rather than viewing the mind and body as separate entities, it encourages us to experience ourselves as a whole. Through movement, sensation, curiosity and self-observation, we gradually recognise habitual patterns and discover new possibilities for moving with greater ease, comfort and efficiency in everyday life.

“Movement is life. Life is a process. Improve the quality of the process and you improve the quality of life itself.”

- Moshe Feldenkrais

Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais (1904–1984) was a physicist, engineer and martial artist whose own experience of injury led him to explore the relationship between movement, learning and the brain. His discoveries became the foundation of the Feldenkrais Method, helping people move with greater ease, awareness and confidence.

Awareness Through Movement®

Awareness Through Movement® classes are group lessons guided through spoken instruction. Each lesson offers a different exploration of movement, encouraging curiosity and helping you discover greater ease, coordination and confidence.
