Feldenkrais Method Dublin - Welcome
The Feldenkrais Method is a neurologically based, effective and enjoyable way of going beyond problematic patterns of movement, posture, sensing and feeling. Feldenkrais uses gentle yet powerful movements and directed attention to help us overcome limits of action, thought and feeling regardless of the underlying cause. The work is very effective for a wide variety of movement limitations, neurological conditions, emotional challenges and is beneficial for anyone who wishes to improve movement and posture, clarity of mind, quality of expression and emotional balance. The work is suitable for all ages including children with special needs. Benefits
Individual sessions
Individual sessions called Functional Integration, are created uniquely for each person. Profound changes in the deeply held habits of action can lead to a wide range of benefits. I work with children and adults of all ages with a wide variety of issues, these include -
- posture and mobility
- pain elimination and relief
- stress relief
- limitations associated to neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy and autism
- children with special needs
- rehabilitation after injury
- the method is widely used by sportspeople and performance artists including opera singers, musicians, dancers and actors.
Children with special needs
Reduced Pricing for children with special needs (until April 2012) for Functional Integration The method is a gentle, non-invasive learning based approach. In a session we provide the child with opportunities to improve mobility, function, sensing and action. The work assists the child create new neural connections forming a richer tapestry of movements which will be used creatively as they further learn and develop. We focus on the childs ability to learn. Though we work through the body and with movement it is gentle, pleasant for the child and starts from what the child can do as we move toward open-ended improvement. During my training in the Anat Baniel Method for children with special needs I will be offering reduced rates. This remains valid until April 2012. The Anat Baniel Method is based on Feldenkrais which i have been practicing since 2002. See Benefits for more info.
Group Classes
The group classes consist of the largest body of movement work in the world and are an enjoyable and ingenious way to improve mobility and function, deepen body awareness and assist the nervous system to find new, improved ways of acting, moving, feeling and thinking.
