Falling... - CDs or Download

by Alan Questel

Falling down, falling in love, fear of falling, falling asleep, falling out of favour, falling apart, falling all over yourself...
What is it about falling that is so central to our experience that it can describe so many of our states?
This workshop will explore the theme of falling.What is the relationship between falling and safety, risk, creativity, enhanced abilities and a life that is a little bit easier? Through Feldenkrais® - Awareness Through Movement® we will look at the benefits we may derive from a deeper understanding and experience of falling. If the idea of falling concerns you, be assured that no demands will be placed on you that are beyond your abilities. This workshop is geared towards participants of all levels of experience with Feldenkrais - Awareness Through Movement and of all ages who are seeking a more familiar relationship with the floor that carries us.

Vocal Integration with the Feldenkrais Method® - CD or Download

by Richard Corbeil

Vocal Integration explores the movements and sounds of our childhood that prepared and determined our current vocal abilities, and utilizes them to further the natural development of our voice.

Improve speaking and singing by emulating the kind of movements and sounds that infants use to develop their voices. Enhance your voice by reprogramming the neuromuscular patterns that are the building blocks of vocal functioning.

While introducing the main functional elements of vocal production, the lessons are designed to provide:

  • A healthy foundation for extensive speaking & singing.
  • An internal understanding of holistic vocal functioning.
  • Unique resources to overcome speech or breathing difficulties.
  • An extraordinary way of improving self-confidence.

Getting Hip! - CDs or Download

by Alan Questel

Want to get hip, literally?

In movement this can be done through discovering your hip joints. Your hip joints are the key to easy and comfortable movement — but they are also mysterious and hidden from our self-image. To move from you hip joints is more that just a nice idea, it is an experience you can embrace and utilize more and more frequently in your daily life. Discovering your hip joints and exploring their potential for movement can help you experience new possibilities for moving through your life with a comfort that you had previously only hoped for.

"Getting hip" is more that just, being cool’... it is finding an ease and grace for creating more enjoyment in all the things you do.

by Alan Questel

Easier, more comfortable living can emerge from a more efficient use of our skeleton, yet This ability is a hidden and relatively unperceived aspect of who we are.

The function of our skeleton to bear weight and transmit force is underutilized in our everyday use. Finding our skeleton allows a new way for us to interact with our environment.

Posture with a Purpose - A Whole-Self Approach to Improving Posture - CD or Download

by Bridget Quebodeaux

The way you move both informs and is informed by the way you act, think and feel. Restrictive habits in movement and posture inhibit your natural body intelligence and limit your freedom of true self-expression in action. Improving your posture isn’t about stretching or exercising or holding your body in the “right” position. Improved posture arises organically from ways of moving and being that are natural and feel good. Posture with a Purpose utilizes directed attention and sensory-motor exploration to help you discover your best posture and live your best life.

There are no rules to remember, no exercises to feel guilty about not doing. These lessons will help you transform sensory motor exploration into learned improvement and healthy habits that you'll keep for life. Perfect posture is within you and practiced mindfulness and self-awareness can help you set it free.

An excellent introduction to the Feldenkrais Method.

Foundations of the Feldenkrais Method®: A Framework for Learning - CD or Download

by Erin Ferguson, M.A.

The Feldenkrais Method® offers a particular type of learning that de-habituates the familiar sensory-motor pathways in your brain. It provides new coordination and skill while leaving you relaxed, refreshed, and focused.

How do these lessons work? Often the lessons are like puzzles in which you figure out how to move around fixed constraints. This prompts the nervous system to activate different muscle patterns than those you usually use. Your attitude of curiosity and exploration can bring about a major change in your habitual movement and experience. Improve your ability to perform daily tasks, whether you're lifting up your child, putting away the dishes, or training for a marathon.
