Workshop: Connected Arms; Changed Self-Image, 3/28/10

“The negative aspect of learning to achieve aims is that we tend to stop learning when we have mastered sufficient skills to attain our immediate objective.” ~ Moshe Feldenkais, Awareness Through Movement

Teaching the Feldenkrais Method has been a joy for me because it has taught me to explore life.   Having competed in gymnastics growing up, I learned to be very goal orientated.  After my gymnastics career, I thought I would never find the same inspiration I had for gymnastics, in anything else in life.  At the time, I thought this was because I had no competition to reach towards. 

When I discovered the Feldenkrais Method I fell in love with the exploration of movement and the inner wisdom I gained from the lessons.  This taught me to love learning for the sake of learning.  I discovered that I am most happy when I am learning, and the aspect of training in gymnastics that I thrived upon, was the endless self-education and not the end result.  Realizing this today, allows me to turn most everything I do into an interesting and worthy experience.   This is all due to this wonderful method!

I would love to hear from all of you about how Feldenkrais has changed your outlook on your life.  Following is information about my next workshop.  I hope to hear from you.

“The parts of the body that are easily defined in the awareness are those that serve man daily, while the parts that are dull or mute in his awareness play only an indirect role in his life and are almost missing from his self-image when he is in action.” ~ Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais
