Feldenkrais® Resources Training Institute

Feldenkrais Classes and Workshops for the Public and Feldenkrais Practitioners

Awareness Through Movement

Public Workshops
Feldenkrais Resources Training Institute is pleased to offer Awareness Through Movement (ATM) workshops, open to both health professionals and the general public. These seminars are appropriate for beginning and ongoing students. Each workshop will focus on a different application of The Feldenkrais Method® and can be taken as a series or individually. These workshops also serve as an excellent prelude to our Professional Training Program.

Awareness Through Movement classes consist of gentle, verbally guided movement sequences, each organized around the improvement of a different aspect of human movement and functioning. Unlike many movement practices where the same sequences are repeated, ATM offers an impressive variety of movement situations addressing every human function and area of the body. Thus the learning process in ATM is full of surprises, challenges and the pleasure of learning in new and unexpected ways. The movement lessons give structure to the investigation of diverse themes such as attention, self-image, intention and self-responsibility resulting in a multifaceted and multi-dimensional learning experience.

From the Book:

“Feldenkrais’s perceptiveness seemed to defy the limits of our ordinary senses. Feldenkrais could touch a person’s head and feel patterns of muscular contractions in regions remote from where his hands were placed, such as the spine, chest, and pelvis, all the way to the feet; by touching and pressing on the feet, he could feel reactions all the way up to the head….

The principles that belong to Feldenkrais’s method cut across distinctions between war and peace, competition and cooperation, and accurately reflect nature’s underlying order. Such generality, understood as foundational for complexity, is the hallmark of lasting contributions to human knowledge and capabilities.”
