Would you like to learn how to move more easily,
have healthier posture & get rid of aches and pains?
The Feldenkrais Method increases our self awareness and leads us to discover invigorating, pain-free ways to move and be- whether
it's playing the violin, swinging a tennis racket, lifting a child,
getting in or out of a chair, driving, working at a computer, or simply lying down. Based on the inseparable nature of mind and body, Feldenkrais uses gentle, novel movements to access the brain's capacity to upgrade functional patterns. This concrete, practical application of
neuroplasticity enhances movement, thinking and emotion. When we move more easily, our posture and breathing improve by themselves; we
generally feel better about ourselves and our sense of possibility comes to life.
Each of us has this ability to continuously learn and improve throughout life- how we move, think and interact. As a Feldenkrais Teacher, working with a small child or an older adult, I guide my students toward having fewer limitations, generating greater joy for learning, discovering new ways to do what they want with increasing ease, comfort and grace, and moving closer to their full creativity and potential.
"After
working with Lauren just a few times, some lifelong habits that I
wasn't even aware of have started changing and now my neck, which was
always tense, feels so much better."
-Dr. Susan Chew, veterinarian
The Anat Baniel Method for Children is based
on The Feldenkrais Method. This work has often helped children with
special needs reach goals beyond what is expected from other
approaches, and that parents may have been told are not possible.

"What
I'm after is not flexible bodies so much as flexible brains. What I'm
after is to restore each person's human dignity." -Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais
