"...Through awareness we can learn to move with astonishing lightness and freedom at almost any age."
"...The body reflects attitudes of the mind, improve the function of the body and you must improve the state of the mind."
"...What I'm after isn't flexible bodies, but flexible minds. What I'm after is to restore each person to their human dignity."
"...to make the impossible possible, the possible easy, and the easy elegant."
- Moshe Feldenkrais, D.Sc.

Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais (1904-1984) was a distinguished scientist, physicist and engineer. His insights contributed to the development of a new field of somatic education based on his knowledge of the relationship between bodily movement and the ways we think, feel and learn. |

| His work took two directions: Awareness Through Movement® or verbally guided group movement lessons; and Functional Integration®, one-on-one lessons which may include guided active movement or gentle passive movement lessons. Due to his work countless people have been helped in many parts of the world. For more information about Functional Integration® click here. "Nothing is permanent about our behaviour patterns except our belief that they are so." - Moshe Feldenkrais, D.Sc. |
