Our one-day Awareness Through Movement® workshops for the public are open to both health professionals and the general public. The seminars are appropriate for both beginning and more experienced students. Each workshop will focus on a different facet of the Feldenkrais Method® and can be taken as a series or individually. These workshops also serve as an excellent prelude to our Feldenkrais Professional Training Programs.

| Title: | MOVE LIKE THE ANIMALS |
| Location: | Feldenkrais Resources |
| Instructor(s): | STEVEN ROSENHOLTZ |
| Description: | In exploring the development cycle of movement of the infant, one of the themes of Moshe developed in his teaching was the recapitulation of movements from more primitive species. This theme of our personal development repeating movements from earlier species will be explored in ATM lessons of creeping crawling and other forms of locomotion that will bring a renewed vitality to our standing and walking movements. |

| Title: | BALANCING FLEXORS AND EXTENSORS |
| Location: | Feldenkrais Resources |
| Instructor(s): | STEPHEN ROSENHOLTZ |
| Description: | Moshe said "a spine that won't flex won't extend either." Our habits lead us to bend and extend in some parts of ourselves much more that in others, limiting our ability. In this workshop we will explore bringing movement to all the levels of the spine, so that bending and extending become easier as all parts of us participate. The reciprocal relationship of flexors and extensors will be developed throughout the ATM lessons. |

| Title: | A STUDY OF THE FELDENKRAIS STATE• POISE & AGILITY in ACTION, PART I |
| Location: | Feldenkrais Resources |
| Instructor(s): | CAROL KRESS |
| Description: | As Dr. Feldenkrais writes in THE POTENT SELF: In any coordinated, well-learned action, we can distinguish four sensations: no effort, no resistance, easy breathing and poise- this is the experience of the Feldenkrais State. What does it mean to live in the Feldenkrais State? It is a state of graceful activity, where we feel lightness and ease in each of our movements. Our erect, potent posture makes freedom of movement easy in any direction, and our breathing is full and easy without our having to make conscious efforts. Discomfort and difficulties are part of every life. The Feldenkrais State boosts our resiliency and ability to rebound after setbacks. In this way, Awareness Through Movement lessons dissolve pain and restore equanimity. Most importantly, what Dr. Feldenkrais' Method teaches us, is to be free of compulsion and become masters of our own lives. We learn to act with single intention and poise, and the ability to change whatever we are doing at any moment, spontaneously responding to changing circumstances. Carol Kress' unique way of teaching facilitates undistracted attention to the ATM process. Students enter a deep form of self awareness that has dramatic potential for change. |

| Title: | UNKINKING YOURSELF • EASING INTO YOUR FULL LENGTH |
| Location: | |
| Instructor(s): | CAROL KRESS |
| Description: | Grow longer by exploring the directions that a healthy spine moves. Having our full height and lightness can't be achieved by stretching or maintaining ourselves in a static posture; these strategies merely engage us in a battle against our muscular contractions. In this workshop we will experiment with movements that will reduce the kinks that habitually shorten us. |
