Welcome to the Feldenkrais® Center for Movement Education

The Feldenkrais Method® is for anyone who wants to make the things they do easier, more efficient and pleasurable. Feldenkrais Method is a mind-body approach, which combines movement and awareness to help you move and live more comfortably and effectively.

Whether it is basic actions like sitting or walking, the daily demands of work and home, or your recreational activities – from painting and gardening to running or dance – Feldenkrais offers enjoyable and effective ways to improve how you move.

Injury, illness, stress and the effects of ageing can diminish your capacity and the enjoyment of your movement: Feldenkrais classes and individual sessions allow you to rediscover lost abilities and pleasure in your movement. Our clients and students regularly report they feel relaxed, energized and a positive, new experience of their body!

Find out more about who comes to Feldenkrais, how they benefit, the services we offer at our Center and the Feldenkrais Method.
