I began learning the Feldenkrais Method when I was 12 years old. It really helped me gain confidence and guide me through those difficult years. I have since grown up to be an animator. One of the main things they teach you in animation school is to look for and emphasize weight and balance in...

Professional Training
 |
| Trainees learning Functional Integration |
A professional training in the Feldenkrais Method® is an 800 hour program divided over a period of 4 years at the rate of 3 times a year during which trainees develop the skills and understanding to begin a professional Feldenkrais practice.
The training environment is safe, stimulating and noncompetitive, respecting each student's learning pace and progress rate.
The process is organic rather than academic; motor development and the functional possibilities of the human body are learned from the inside out, through your own experience and explorations.
Primarily a practical training, our programs will positively lead to a fuller realization of yourself by developing your self-image and expanding your potential for skillful action, learning ability, awareness and self-confidence.

"I've had pain all my life and as I approached 60, I could no longer keep up with myself as it got worse. My vitality and fire was beginning to snuff out and I saw myself getting "crotchety." Then I found myself running here and there to doctors and alternative methodologies taking pills and doing exercises and stretching (which caused me more pain). Everyone was an expert but no one showed me how to manage my own life.
It wasn't until I discovered Feldenkrais® that I knew I was on the "intelligent" path. Thru the facilitation of Angel, this work taught me how to use my brain the way it was meant to be used, how to be aware, bring intention into action and learn how to learn.
Up until then, I let people tell me what to do, now I am in charge of my own life and I foresee my golden years as becoming more self reliant and active.
Even if I don't wish to be a practitioner, I plan on taking the 4 year training because I deserve the best. I am finally taking control of my future and giving myself a new lease on life!
I am already finding myself growing young!"
