The Feldenkrais group classes this Spring Season 2025 have the Theme “Consider Your Feet”. The practical information you can read down below.
The English spoken class is on Mondays at 5:30 PM.
Awareness Through Movement
- Do you want more ease of movement?
- Is your body holding you back?
- Do you often suffer from an injury?
- Do you experience pain or discomfort when moving?
- Do you feel stiff, awkward, or tense?
Would you like to:
- Learn to move without pain?
- Have more freedom in your breathing and movement?
- Discover other possibilities within yourself?
- Wish you can improve more as a performing artist?
Then the Weekly Group Class Is for You!
Each group class is different because the new and unexpected activate your brain to come up with new solutions. I choose my lessons based on my observations from previous classes, ensuring that you feel personally addressed and challenged in the lesson. I have an inexhaustible supply of movements and sufficient experience to feel precisely which movement fits the moment to help you progress. Therefore, pain quickly ceases to be your motivation for participating; rather, curiosity about your own possibilities becomes your driving force.
You can take a three-class pass, allowing you to participate in three classes to try it out. You can also sign up for the full course of 20 lessons.
What Does a Group Class Look Like?
We begin the lesson by feeling the contact with the floor. This contact provides sensory information and helps you perceive precisely what you are doing during the movements. Between movements, we’ll always return to this position to observe changes.
We make unfamiliar, unexpected, often surprising movements. The unfamiliarity helps you listen better to what you are doing.
Constantly comparing movements left and right or before and after gives you the space to learn experientially, just as you learned to move as a child.
The words I use during movement stimulate sensing your movement in your bones and joints, creating a direct connection with your brain. This way, you can shift movement patterns that have become habitual. Often, these unnoticed habits are not functional and are the cause of problems.
While you move and feel, the movements change, and moving becomes easier. Often, the lesson gradually builds towards a recognizable, easier movement. Sometimes, we only do small, detailed movements.
By the end, you’ll surprise yourself with how you stand and walk: mostly lighter, steadier, or more fluid than you are used to, so much more in touch with yourself. After the lesson, you feel pleasantly comfortable in your body.
Seasonal Programs
This past season, we have explored how the pelvis moves in the concept of Your Pelvis Moving in Connection. How can you move lightly from the back, pelvis, and legs? Which movements are most suitable for this? It was about the position of your hip joints in the entire base of your pelvis. This also includes the pelvic floor and diaphragm.
Lately, I’ve been seeing many people with balance issues that often significantly improve by bringing more awareness to their feet and making them more mobile. Therefore, I think it’s a good idea to bring your focus back to the feet and then make movements starting from the feet. The series is called “Consider Your Feet”. Since feet carry us and often work too hard for what is truly needed, they stiffen repeatedly. Even if you have done some of these lessons before, you will notice that you stand more comfortably and can balance on your feet better after each lesson.
