    Feldenkrais Class & Workshops

    The internationally acclaimed Feldenkrais Method improves coordination, mobility, and posture so you function and move more comfortably and have a greater sense of awareness and vitality. A deep understanding of physics, biomechanics, human development and the Japanese martial arts inspired the development of Feldenkrais.

    Feldenkrais Class

    Heightened Awareness and Improved Movement

    In this class, Kaz Shibao will guide you through a series of precisely structured movements to teach you how to relax and abandon habitual patterns. The lessons consist of comfortable, easy movements that gradually increase in range and complexity to reeducate your nervous system. You'll learn optimal new patterns that can relieve pain and muscular tension, improve flexibility and posture, and reduce stress. After these lessons you often feel taller and lighter, more flexible and coordinated, and deeply relaxed. Feldenkrais particularly benefits those experiencing chronic pain and seniors who want to move more effortlessly.
