Dr. Feldenkrais sometimes worked in positions that challenged his students' sense of physical balance and stability. This approach evoked a profound response, without making the person he was working with feel insecure or threatened. When asked about this, he said, "I create instability because I understand how the laws of nature work to seek equilibrium.”

In this advanced training, Feldenkrais Trainers David Zemach-Bersin and Raz Ori share ways to convey meaningful information by creating instability. Learn how to use non-habitual situations that perturb balance to provoke attention and awareness, stimulating the ability of the nervous system to learn and improve.

The workshop includes video examples of Dr. Feldenkrais using these principles, and Functional Integration demonstrations with both David and Raz.

11+ hour program includes:

  • Six Awareness Through Movement lessons
  • Five Functional Integration demonstrations
  • Eight discussions
  • One article
  • One Question & Answer session
  • One supplemental FI lesson
  • Lifetime access to recordings
  • Option to download recordings

Feldenkrais Access presented this workshop  October 16-18, 2020.
