Class Information
Feldenkrais® group classes are
… known as Awareness Through Movement® lessons. Similar to Tai Chi or gentle yoga, Awareness Through Movement classes use slow, mindful movements to achieve powerful effects in terms of strength, flexibility, and holistic integration of body and mind. Unique to the Feldenkrais Method® of somatic education is that these lessons tie directly into functional movements of daily life, such as walking efficiently, safely lifting objects, and improving one’s posture in sitting or standing. Periodically, we will feature multi-day workshops or extended-form learning opportunities with guest teachers from around the world.
You can expect a class to
… last approximately 60 minutes and the Frederick SchjangMembership program offers classes seven days a week. in class, you will lie on the floor in a variety of comfortable positions: either on your back, front, or side. Occasionally classes are done in a seated position. The teacher guides students through a sequence of movements, encouraging them to move with gentle attention within a comfortable range. You may become aware of unexpected and interesting connections within and between the movements. As you attend to the improving quality of movement, unnecessary muscular tensions throughout the body can reorganize and release. Students are often amazed at the quick and clear changes that occur through the neuromuscular repatterning that happens in an Awareness Through Movement lesson!
