Balance is often treated as something you achieve by tightening and holding yourself still. In practice, this approach limits mobility, reduces responsiveness, and can actually make you less stable over time.

Join Alice for a deep dive into the key principles of the Feldenkrais Method. An invitation to slow down, this month’s focus will be on understanding balance as a dynamic process so that you can move with more ease, less fear and more efficiency.

This 90-minute workshop is a safe environment to intimately understand one’s unique movement and behaviour patterns and is an excellent tool for stress and injury management as a result. We will begin with gentle explorations on the mat which will lead to guided movement on our feet.

The Feldenkrais Method was developed by physicist and engineer, Dr Moshe Feldenkrais, as a neurological education. Developing sequences that offer novelty and choice to the nervous system, he was one of the first scientists to understand the human being’s incredible neuroplastic capabilities: our ability to learn and develop continuously throughout our lifetime! He believed that we learn optimally through rest, play, curiosity and awareness and these themes will be interwoven throughout the 90 minutes!
