A Feldenkrais®
Awareness Through Movement® Class
with Al
Wadleigh, GCFP
• Increase
range of motion and flexibility in the upper back
• Relieve back, neck and shoulder pain
• Open the chest and become more aware of the movement of the
ribs
• Breath more fully
• develop a more natural, relaxed physiology
• Reduce stress and anxiety
The upper back can
often be a source of discomfort. Stress, anxiety, accident or sitting
at a desk can lead to pain and stiffness in the thoracic spine.
We will do a series of lessons designed to bring awareness and flexibility
to this often troubled area of the back. Improving the movements of twisting,
side bending, flexion, extension and breathing will be key to this class.
Develop more flexibility in your upper back and discover greater comfort
and ease in your daily life.

Awareness
Through Movement is a series of verbally guided, gentle, slow and organized
movements typically done on the floor on a mat in a group setting. These
lessons guide your awareness toward your own movement patterns. You begin
to generate more choices in thought, emotion and action, and problems and
discomfort are resolved. |
“I
was skeptical at first about whether this would work for me. After the first
class I was a believer! Not only was I relaxing my jaw, but I also found
tension being released in other parts of my body. That is the wonderful
thing about the Feldenkrais Method. You learn about how the muscles
in your body work together. As a result, you can reduce or eliminate pain
you are experiencing before that pain becomes a serious problem. I highly
recommend these classes!” ––P.L.,

I
have benefitted greatly from Al’s Feldenkrais instruction.
I have attended weekly classes at the Senior Center for two years. As I
look back, the changes in my well being over that time are impressive. Before
these classes, I had recurring joint pain in various areas and made regular
visits to the chiropractor. Through Feldenkrais, I am now pain-free
and have not gone to a chiropractor in many months. The difference is also
amazing in terms of the ease and flexibility of movement. —
