needs children can overcome movement challenges
By Jackie Mason, September 16, 2008

for Movement’s approach to functional development

of brain damage, it must be re-learned and integrated
in the development process. Continue

Sex-The
Feldenkrais®Way for Women - CD or
Download
by Donna Ray, M.A., M.F.T.
In the 1940's, a medical doctor named Arnold Kegel
developed a series of exercises for women with
urinary problems and women who had poor muscle
tone in their vaginas. These sequences were actually
adapted from sexual exercises practiced in India
for thousands of years. Most women have heard
about Kegels and know that they can help women
have longer, deeper, more profound orgasms, in
some cases making sex enjoyable for the first
time. Now Donna Ray, Feldenkrais Educator
& psychotherapist, has added Feldenkrais
Movements to the Kegel exercises, magnifying the
power, breadth, and scope of sexual proficiency
available to women. Based
on the work of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais. 1
