Talk: We Can Learn to be Better for Ourselves, Moment to Moment (5 min)
An introduction to the Getting Oriented lesson series, and to Lesson 1. Nick talks about why Feldenkrais helps, how Feldenkrais ATM lessons work, and how to take care of yourself and learn as much as you can.

Hi. I feel taller . thank you
Thank you sooooooooooo much Nick! Truely generous
I began exploring Feldenkrais 5 years ago and then let it slide until recently. I re-read “The Potent Self” and it reignited my interest. I read and re-read the many chapters and followed with the suggested movements.
I have had some significant breakthroughs with back and hip flexibility which made walking pleasurable, perhaps for the first time that I can remember. Thank-you Moshe FeldenKrais
