Feldenkrais® lessons are comprised of
specific movements done slowly and without pain.The spectrum of lessons is vast but they hold
in common that the student performs somewhat novel movement with attention
and awareness.Results are often the
greatest with slower and smaller movements so anyone can do it.
Note: Awareness Through Movement® and Functional Integration® lessons are abbreviated and referred to as ATM and FI respectively.
Following
a Feldenkrais® lesson, your brain
continues to work to translate the freshly experienced movement into useful information to create new, efficient patterns of movement.You will find increased movement in parts of your body you did not move
during the lesson. This is integration and leads to an overall sense of increased well-being.
A growing sense of balance and ease is one of the benefits following
Awareness Through Movement® or Functional Integration®.
