Feldenkrais Works

'Smarter Than Stretching"
Feldenkrais online workshops
June 14th and July 19th 2-5pm
£35 for one and £60 for both.

1) Sun 14th June 'Beyond Hamstrings'
The classic flexibility test is whether you can touch your toes while sitting or standing with legs long. How useful it actually is as a test of functional agility is one good question, but another is whether the traditional approach of simply stretching the hamstrings is the most useful way of addressing it? Is it more interesting as a question about functionality - like how we can reach in different directions while sitting? or reach in the direction of the floor when standing? Could we use it as a way to improve our use of the chest and pelvis to connect and enable legs and arms? We will use two or three classic feldenkrais lessons to explore the possibilities.

2) Sun 19th July 'Beyond Hip Joints'
Being able to find more range of mobility in the hip joints, for yoga, dance, martial arts or just ease in life is often sought after. But the traditional focus of simply stretching the hips open in different ways doesn't work for all of us, and even when it does it can lead to a lack of connection (and so strength) that does not always support healthy functionality and can even lead to injury. Less known is the relationship of the hip joints to the mobility of the back and chest, which can enable better range of motion supported and enabled by the whole torso.

“Posture is personal.”

From a Feldenkrais perspective, posture is not something to force or fix into a “correct” shape. It is a living expression of how you organise yourself in gravity, shaped by your history, habits, emotions, and intentions.

Rather than asking “Am I sitting or standing correctly?”, we might ask “How am I doing this, and could it be easier?”

When we bring gentle attention to how we move and hold ourselves, we begin to discover options. Effort softens. Breathing frees. Movement becomes more fluid and responsive.

There is no single ideal posture. There is only the one that works for you in this moment and your ability to adapt it when life asks something new.

Awareness creates choice. And choice is where comfort and change begin.

Join us in May for International Feldenkrais Awareness Week to explore more and unpack posture.

A Reminder that you can still join these classes any week! These themes run till mid December.
