March 19 / Reaching for Chocolate (or the Stars)

With Julie Lively

Have you ever wished that you were just one inch taller so you could reach for that top shelf, for that wanted item just beyond your fingertips? In this workshop we will explore how to use yourself to, perhaps, reach a little further. Does reaching involve just your shoulder? How can you go beyond the length of your arm or simply your height to make the most of your reach? We will explore the relationship of your foot to your fingertips to see if you could reach a little taller.

May 14 / Freeing Neck and Jaw Tension

With Roland Mathews

Many of us suffer from jaw tension or dysfunction (TMJ syndrome). Headaches, eyestrain, neck, and shoulder problems can be directly related to mouth and jaw tension. This workshop will use gentle somatic movements, based on the Feldenkrais Method, to effectively help reduce jaw pain and tension related to TMJ.

June 25 / A Flexible Back Is a Healthier Back

With Falk Feddersen

At the Feldenkrais Institute of San Diego / 800-765-1907

Weekend Workshops

March 29 / Core Power the Feldenkrais Way

With Liz Sisco

4:00 p.m.to 6:30 p.m.

$45. Pre-registration is required.

The ability to move decisively and powerfully from the center of the body is the foundation for movement. It is the key to long-term flexibility and health, and essential for enhancing athletic performance. From walking to running, to swimming, biking, skiing, dancing, or martial arts, well-coordinated movement generated from the core of the body leads to powerfully fluid action.

Using several Awareness Through Movement lessons in this workshop, we’ll explore how movements directed from your center can ripple in an evenly distributed way throughout your body. You’ll be refreshed with new ways to keep coordinated core action pleasurable and sustainable.

April 18 / Improve Your Alignment for Easy Flexibility:

Focus on the Shoulders and Neck

With institute director Elizabeth Beringer

11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

$85. Pre-registration is required.
