Hi Students:
Take note of a few reminders and please mark some dates in your calender. Improving Through Movement will be closed the week of June 15 -22. There will be no Feldenkrais class at Core Wellness Yoga on Wednesday, June 19th.
I am sharing a wonderful video this month, of a Father, dancing harmoniously with his child. It is beautiful to watch the way he listens to himself, his child, the space around him, and the other dancers with all of his senses. You will notice that without looking he feels where his child is at all moments. One can see that the communication between Father and toddler is happening without words.
You don’t have to be a dancer to learn to listen in this way. You can learn to listen during a Feldenkrais class. There you will learn how to sense, feel, think and move gently on the floor. Each lesson may challenge you mentally, physically or emotionally . In a class with other people you will start to sense the person moving in their space next to you and eventually all the space around you. Later you can take with you, this gentle way of attending into your life and relationships. Dancing with another is taking listening to the next level.
One of many reasons, I teach the Feldenkrais and Child’Space methods is because I learn to sense more completely. This carries into my life. My relationships with family, friends and students continue to grow more harmonious and richer with each year. This I am very grateful for.
Sincerely, Donna
