The Feldenkrais Method At The Westlake Clinic
THE FELDENKRAIS METHOD was invented by the scientist Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais (1904-84).
It is a nonintrusive way of coming into contact with your body, of becoming more sensitive and aware of your movements - and of yourself.
Throughout our lives from childhood to old age we develop individual motion habits which influence our movements, behavioural patterns and actions. Over time we adopt a repertoire of movements characteristic to our identity which defines the framework in which we habitually - and mostly unconsciously - act. We take note only when we experience bodily tension, a limited capacity to move, or pain.
Through gentle and pleasurable movement sequences, based on human physiology, the Feldenkrais Method uses the natural and readily availablability of your nervous system to de-automatise the body from ingrained movement patterns and mechanical habits to organize and coordinate movements in a more intelligent, efficient and flexible way.
This is an ongoing process, providing you with the stimulus to develop your untapped, unexplored potential. There are two different ways of stimulating this process of senso-motoric reorganization: you can participate in Feldenkrais classes called "AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT", or you are invited to try a very quiet and gentle Feldenkrais session "FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION".
"We make the impossible possible, the difficult easy, and the easy elegant." Moshe Feldenkrais
