The Trager Approach provides a pleasurable, gentle, and effective approach to movement education and mind/body integration. Its techniques help release deep-seated physical and mental patterns and facilitate profound relaxation, increased physical mobility, and mental clarity.

Each method is backed by extensive theory and documented effectiveness. Each is gentle and designed to accommodate individual limitations and particular movement patterns. Common to all methods are:
  • enhanced flexibility, posture, balance, and coordination;
  • the ability to reduce the effects of stress and to prevent injury; and
  • practical ways to achieve focus, deep relaxation and renewal.

Our classes provide a social community to support the work, and the hands-on private sessions provide a personal approach in a safe and quiet environment. Both methods help to:
  • cultivate a deeper presence, using the medium of movement as a guide;
  • improve stability, flexibility, and balance;
  • reduce chronic pain, recover from injury, and enhance athletic performance;
  • improve alignment, enabling,for instance, more comfort while working on the computer, playing an instrument, or meditating without suffering strain and
  • stimulate creativity;
  • provide protection from the general wear and tear of everyday life as you amplify the connections between mind and body.

At Movement Dialogues, we guide you in identifying and practicing the healthiest and most productive ways of applying mindfulness to movement in order to enhance possibility and quality of life. Our students enjoy the pleasure they experience in movement and the benefits that make their lives better.
