It has something to offer everyone. All of us could be more fluid and free in our organization and movement. Anyone who wants a way to move freely with a sense of balance and grace, learned in a way that is easy and pleasurable would enjoy this system. This modality is suitable for all ages and levels of fitness. Those involved with physical performance - dancers, martial artists, actors and sports people can develop qualities to elite levels - quickly. Musicians find the benefits invaluable. While a Feldenkrais Practitioner wouldn't talk in terms of 'fixing' debilitating symptoms - injuries, difficulties in moving etc - this modality is extremely successful in this area. The main outcome for those who participate in these applications can be to develop a sense of their own organization and movement such that they can move in more sophisticated ways. This tends to present as a fluid, balanced, elegant presence. This is even with just simply walking and sitting. With a core sense of your own movement you are released from inefficient habits that tend to result in injuries, stiffness and awkward movement. You can develop poise, presence and choice. The Nervous SystemPerhaps the most important aspect to this method, though, is that it works directly through the nervous system. This has enormous implications for you. In a nutshell - as you engage in the Awareness Through Movement exercises or receive Functional Integration you are expanding the capacity of your nervous system. You are developing more synaptic connections. Keep your nervous system young and you stay young. There are many other benefits to the Feldenkrais Method that I hope you will discover as you meander through this website.
