Awareness through movement
In the course you will experience how body awareness, coordination, flexibility and well-being change through interesting movement lessons that are carried out in unfamiliar ways. Based on your own observations and insights from self-awareness, we will filter out the special features and potential of Feldenkrais pedagogy and develop ways of how and where you could apply it to your own daily work/everyday life.
Children grow a little beyond themselves every day, full of curiosity, without effort and with natural ease. We turn and roll, support ourselves, look, reach, fall over again, are perhaps surprised, and we try again. Nobody would think that these are mistakes, no, it is the joy of growth, of becoming. Children learn through intuitive searching and finding, and they do so with great dedication. They explore their limits and joyfully find new possibilities that are easy for them. Dr Moshe Feldenkrais (1904 1984), who was a brilliant lateral thinker and studied the connections between movement, thinking and feeling, calls this organic learning.
With his method, which he developed in the middle of the 20th century, he offers us the chance to move through movement sequences with awareness in the most diverse and sometimes most unusual ways. You will be guided in a group, lying on the floor, sitting or standing, with words through movements that are orientated towards our early childhood development. This is how we begin to explore our bodies through movement. This is unfamiliar at first. Many questions help us to observe and perceive. We gradually discover our limits and possibly our restrictions. If we feel our limitations, we can judge or condemn ourselves, or we can take them as a challenge and go on a journey of discovery to find out what we can do to make movement easier, freer, more enjoyable and more efficient. We experience more and more of our potential in our very own way and at our own pace. This discovery of new things is a great enrichment. If we change our movements, our position in space, our relationship to ourselves and our environment will also change.
The Feldenkrais lessons help us to rediscover our potential and thus our self through physical movements. We become aware of ourselves and reflect on our actions with great mindfulness, our own appreciation and without any expectations. These qualities will enhance both our personal and social skills. With the Feldenkrais Method we can learn to recognise HOW we act and therefore be able to do WHAT we want. (according to Dr Moshe Feldenkrais)
No matter how old we are, we can grow a little beyond ourselves every day.
The course will take place on 25 and 26 January 2025 in K 201 and K 202 from 9 am to 12 pm and from 1 pm to 3 pm.
You will receive all further information from our trainer.
