Why Feldenkrais®?

Dear Students:
For this post, I decided to ask my students to express in words why they attend my Functional Integration® sessions &/or Awareness Through Movement® classes & workshops. Some of those that have written I have been teaching for many years & others for a couple of months. If you read their testimonials, I believe you many find a common feeling of gratitude coming through from each one of them. If you have put the Feldenkrais Method® on a hiatus their stories might remind you of some of your own experiences & their different voices may be helpful if you wish to explain the method to your family & friends.

“I’ve had both private Functional Integration® sessions and Feldenkrais® classes with Donna – for plantar fasciitis in the past and more recently for sciatic nerve flare-ups. Working with Donna has helped me address unhealthy movement patterns and learned habits. I am grateful for her incredible knowledge of the body and ability to guide her students with clarity!  Feldenkrais® feels like movement medicine offering me increased mobility, balance, flexibility and ease as I move through life!” ~Joyce Haller

“I am continually impressed with Donna’s ability to observe and assess minute movement imbalances and to present correct alternative movements. She is kind, gentle, and patient.  In being her client for two months, I am seeing improvements in my movement patterns.  After 30+ years of doctors and physical therapy visits with no results, including three joint replacements and proposed spinal surgery, I will continue with Donna, with the goal of enjoying walking again.”  ~I. E.

“I have been doing Feldenkrais® classes with Donna for about 10 years. Since then I have not needed to visit a chiropractor and have learned more about body awareness.” ~Gwen

“I continue to take Donna’s classes because I like learning how to use my body more efficiently so that I can live the active lifestyle I want to live.  I also like the hands on Functional Integration® sessions that address my particular “problem areas”.” ~L.R.

If you would like to schedule an appointment for a hands on Functional Integration® session contact me today. To attend classes and workshops you can do so starting in August after a short summer break during the month of July.  Peace to All!
