1) MENTORING and SMALL GROUP PRACTICE
After I finished my Feldenkrais training, I plunged into a practice that grew reasonably quickly, and I worked out that I needed an experienced practitioner that I felt comfortable with to talk to every month or two to discuss questions and issues that were coming up. I also found it helpful to go with a colleague or two to an experienced practitioner to practice and explore FI in a different way to bigger advanced trainings. It was very helpful to have some time with closer attention from a practitioner to ask questions and spend time on whatever we wanted to focus on, or what they thought would be most helpful for us specifically at that point.
After 18 years of a busy and varied practice, and several years into being an Assistant Trainer as well, I feel I’m in a position to offer the kind of support that I found so helpful myself. It might suit people whose practices are already growing and want to engage in some regular practice or support for a while, but also practitioners who want to reconnect with the work, or aspects of it, after a break. It could take the form of discussions/study on zoom or in-person practical work. (I’m based in Hornsey in North London) or a mix.
I’m open to suggestions and I would love to hear from individuals, pairs, or small groups, who would like to be in some kind of process like this, and we can work out the details and cost from there ( in the current economic climate, I am happy to do very low cost where needed).
Just drop me an email.
2) ADVANCED TRAININGS
November 1st and 2nd (weekend)
Advanced Training for Professional Feldenkrais Practitioners
“INVESTIGATING SQUATTING”
with Victoria Worsley
at Praktijk Lijnbaansgracht in Amsterdam
10.30-5.30
(FIs with Victoria Available to book on Monday 3rd Nov)
cost for 2 days: Euro 280
Squatting is a fundamental human movement,
and we have mostly lost it from our culture outside of the gym.
But if we leave behind the unhelpful pressure of trying to achieve a full squat and simply explore the elements that go towards it,
we can find so much useful learning and improvement in so many ways:
- Mobility in the hip, knee and ankle joints
- Relationship of the pelvis to legs and back
- Extension through the upper back
- Folding and unfolding to get up and down from the floor
- Ability to lift and lower objects from the floor
- Easier sitting on a chair and improved standingI’m sure we could find more! But we can make a start over two days using Awareness Through Movement and Functional Integration to investigate this rich topic!
The workshop is suitable for qualified Feldenkrais practitioners and trainee practitioners.
