Start Your Walking Lessons TodayImprove the way you use your knees and move into comfort
Our knees are the largest joints in our body and play a central role in our mobility, ease, and freedom of movement. They support our entire body's weight in motion with each step we take. They allow us to move forward and backward, as well as from side to side, safely and continuously. How? Our knees, ankles, hips, and spine work together as a finely tuned synergistic system of springs. This is what gives us -simultaneously- fluidity and stability in movement.
However, some of our postural habits compromise the health and comfort of our knees. When we are not organized to use our knees effectively, excessive muscular effort, strain, increased wear and tear, pain, and instability can occur.
Feldenkrais lessons provide a safe and effective way to revive the dynamic, healthy use of your knee joints. The lessons presented in this program will improve circulation in the area around your knee joints and help you significantly improve your comfort, range of movement, and sense of stability and balance.
Raz Ori's teaching is clear, detailed, gentle, and educational. Intelligent Knees for Better Walking will help you understand the functionality of your knees and give you a set of protective and restorative lessons that you can use for self-care.

What People are Saying
"After this program, my running has taken on a lightness. I've become more aware of my chest, arms, turning, and lengthening my back. Another focus of attention is the feet and how they sense the weight of the body. With this perception one can walk with joy. I highly recommend Intelligent Knees."
-Brunilda Castejon
"I cannot thank you enough for the liberating movements I have learned in Intelligent Knees. For the first time in years, my knees feel relaxed. I was always experiencing pain in both knees and was advised knee replacements. I am doing your exercises daily and my knees are getting better."
~N.Degani
"Before this course, walking was misery, I would cry in frustration at the sight of stairs. What surprised me after the first class of this series was that when I got up off the floor, I had no pain. I even started dancing! I am simply amazed!"

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. If you would like to improve your physical comfort and abilities, this approach is for you.
Why are they called lessons?
They're called ‘lessons’ instead of ‘exercises’ because your brain engages in a process of sensory-motor learning when you do them. With easy movements and relaxed attention, new options for your physical comfort, posture, and movement will emerge.
Why does this approach work?
Feldenkrais lessons teach you how to reduce pain, restore function, and increase flexibility by directing your attention and guiding you through a series of gentle movements to activate your brain's neuroplasticity and bring about immediate improvements.
