Improving the Freedom of Your Arms

A program of six Feldenkrais lessons to gently improve the health and comfort of your arms and shoulders. Taught by Feldenkrais Trainer Raz Ori.

GET STARTED

Reduce discomfort and improve ease of movement in your arms

 


 

Your arms play an important role in your engagement with the world; in your activity level, your balance, your dexterity, and your ability to walk freely. However, many of us spend hours a day sitting, typing, and looking at screens. Using your arms in a limited and restricted way causes them to become tense and strained.

This on-demand program of gentle, guided Feldenkrais lessons will improve the health of your arms by strengthening their vital neuromuscular connections to your back, shoulders, and ribs. You will learn how to relieve tension and regain the ability to move your arms freely, with less effort and more pleasure. Better coordination of your arms and shoulders will help to improve your sense of equilibrium, confidence, agility, and mobility.

What People are Saying

 

"I have benefited tremendously from this course. I'm experiencing less pain in my shoulders and have increased my range of motion. I even have more strength to carry groceries upstairs, and I've found a way to reach for the seat belt in my car using all those diagonal muscles in my back."

~Rosalie Alfonso

"I registered for this course because I broke the head of my humerus and had not regained full mobility. I went for a walk today with my Nordic walking sticks, and to my surprise, I felt such softness and elasticity in my shoulder girdle and throughout my chest that I have not experienced for a long time. Walking was not only easier but really JOYFUL." 

~Program Participant

"I've been enjoying my new awareness of the connection between the muscles of the back and my arm movements."

"I highly appreciate Raz encouraging us to adjust the lessons meet our needs."

"Thank you for describing an alternative to bending the wrist that I can do! I'm really feeling the benefits."

New to Feldenkrais?

Who are Feldenkrais lessons for?

 

They are for everyone. No previous experience is required. Feldenkrais lessons are gentle, flexible, and used by people of all ages and abilities, for a variety of reasons. Use to improve your physical comfort and abilities, enhance your mood, and promote healing.

Why are they called lessons?

 

They're called ‘lessons’ instead of ‘exercises’ because your brain engages in sensory-motor learning when you do them. As you combine movement and attention, learning occurs and new options for your physical comfort, posture, and movement will emerge.

Why does this approach work?

 

Feldenkrais lessons work because your brain is interested in helping you. A unique combination of movement and attention activates your brain’s flexible neuroplasticity, to help you to develop new neuro-pathways and better neuromuscular organization.
