Today's Lesson
Each day we feature one freely offered lesson and one for our Patron-level donors. It’s like dropping into a Feldenkrais class!
Freely Offered
Quietly prepare for, then clarify, an important primary relationship in the body: arching the spine while flexing the hips. Floor-sitting at the beginning and end of the lesson helps connect your learning to upright activity.
For our Patrons
Mostly side-lying, exploring relationships of the head, spine, chest, and pelvis with a riddle: how do we actually lengthen a leg? Designed to bring awareness and improvement to an action we need for every step we take in the world, this lesson uses breath, foundation forces, and "hinging" at the feet and knees to connect our image of leg lengthening with our whole self, especially the chest.
The Feldenkrais Project is a crowd-funded labor of love. If you believe, like we do, that more people doing more Feldenkrais makes the world a better place, please join the Project to support our 50+ free lessons. Choose between the price of a good cup of coffee and what you’d pay to attend a single Feldenkrais or other movement class. If you join at the Patron level you can access 100 Patrons lessons like the one above.
