Feldenkrais Workshop: Living in Three Dimensions

LIVING IN THREE DIMENSIONS: Orientation, Awareness, and Freedom of Movement


Moshe Feldenkrais used to say that "if you know what you are doing, then you can do what you want." Yet how many of us really know what we're doing when we move? When you turn your head to the right, to you know how your shoulders and arms move? How about your pelvis? What about the back of your head?

Knowing where we are in space is much more than a trick of arcane self-mastery. In this workshop with Feldenkrais Guild member Josh Schreiber Shalem, you will discover how knowing where your limbs are as they move can lead to reduced tension and increased coordination and fluidity, and you will begin to see how, ultimately, self-awareness means freedom of action.
