Feldenkrais Method ® movement lessons: movement education that teaches you to move with greater ease and efficiency so you can enjoy life more.  It’s also one of the most effective stress reduction techniques around. Enjoy better posture, breathing and coordination as well as greater mental and physical flexibility. The lessons are fascinating and fun!
