Knees
on Floor, Torso on Table
by Jerry Karzen
Originally developed by Jerry Karzan to inspire the students
in his Feldenkrais® Professional Training
Programs to design their own Functional Integration®
lessons, this six-lesson program is ideal for Feldenkrais
Practitioners and Trainees, as well as those involved
in dance, pilates, yoga, martial arts and athletics.
These Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement®
lessons gradually increase flexibility and self organization
in your feet, knees, hip joints, spine, ribs and neck.
Beginning with basic sequences, the movements increase
in complexity, leading you to experience a more complete
'body' integration and sense of self.
All lessons in this series are done over a low table or
bed, with knees on the floor and torso on the table. The
table needs to be low enough that the natural arch in
the lower back is maintained.

Discover
Easy Movement and Pain Relief
by Deborah Bowes, PT
Comfortable,
pain-free movement requires the effective coordination
of the head and pelvis through the spine. In working with
thousands of people in pain in her own practice and a
number of pain programs, Deborah Bowes has found that
the loss of this connection is the most common movement
impairment for people in chronic pain. She designed this
series to addresses these issues.
These six easy-to-do lessons will allow you to
discover:
• how to really take care of yourself as you move
• how to shift attention from painful sensations
to other
qualities, changing the ‘neuromodular pattern’
of pain
• the process of sensing for comfort
• how enlarging the self-image decreases pain
• the importance of the pelvis–head connection
• how pain can arise and be avoided in movement,
using breathing as a measure of quality.
These Feldenkrais lessons use gentle folding,
twisting, rolling and breathing to expand your possibilities
for comfortable movement. People who have purchased this
set find it an essential tool for healing and well-being.

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 even 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

Corollary
Discharge, The Forgotten Link - Remarks on the
Body-Mind Problem
by Yochanan Rywerant
Once
an intention of action is formed, communication
is sent from the motor system to the sensory systems
to prepare the body for the intended movement.
This communication is called corollary discharge,
a little-understood aspect of our neuromuscular
functioning. Learned through repetition that is
performed with sensory awareness, the corollary
discharge is highly developed in people of skill
(musicians, athletes, surgeons...) and becomes
an integral part of their self image, allowing
them to have ease, fluidity and congruence in
their movements.
Yochanan Rywerant brings this subliminal aspect
of our selves to conscious awareness, both for
the appreciation of the function and so that we
may become more able to deeply sense and enhance
our motor functioning. Through his mastery of
mind-body education, he teaches us how to utilize
corollary discharge to resolve conflicting patterns
and open the channels of communication between
our motor and sensory systems. Monograph, 35 pages,
