June 3, 2023 Workshop
Bones for Life
based on the work of Moshe Feldenkrais
Alignment, injury prevention and dynamic locomotion
Saturday, June 3rd 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Investment: $75
On Site and On Zoom
This workshop will offer an introduction to the Bones for Life program for anyone new to this process, as well as an experience of how aspects of the Solutions program fits into BFL and a sense of some of the foundational underpinnings from The Feldenkrais Method. These movement processes allow us to find balance between our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems impacting postural alignment, our breath, organ systems and every step we take. If you suffer from neck or back pain, joint issues or other discomforts or just want to move more easily this approach offers solutions for greater freedom and vitality.
The work of Moshe Feldenkrais has been validated in a new research study recognizing how movement impacts our thinking, our emotions and every organ in our body. NPR has a 4 minute synopsis of the study. You can also read the actual research study or an article about the study. Many of you have seen this quote from Moshe which is highlighted in this new study:
"I believe that the unity of mind and body is an objective reality. They are not just parts somehow related to each other, but an inseparable whole while functioning. A brain without a body could not think."
Feel free to contact me with any quesitons.
