The Feldenkrais Method® is a form of somatic education that uses gentle movement and directed attention to improve movement and enhance fuctioning.

The Feldenkrais Method is expressed in two parallel forms: Awareness Through Movement and Functional Integration.

Both forms are based on principles of physics, biomechanics and an empirical understanding of the learning of human development.

Through this method, you can increase your ease and range of motion, improve your flexibility and coordination, and rediscover your inner capacity for graceful, efficient movement. These improvements will often generalize to enhance functioning in other aspects of your life. The Feldenkrais Method teaches through movement how we can improve our capabilities to function in our everyday lives. We improve our well being when we fully use ourselves. Our intelligence depends upon the opportunity we take to experience and learn on our own. This self learning leads to full, dynamic living.

Undoubtedly, body consciousness is the widest area of consciousness of man and the life of the discovery is in a way the life of the body. Therefore, body therapies derive from the view that both physical and mental health will be developed and integrated through the development of physical awareness and studies on the body.

In our age, human development and evolution seems to be merely connected to personality or intellectual characteristics. For the sake of life purposes, many people are alienated from their emotions, bodies and natural life. As a result of this, the person has misused his / her natural energy and capacity and had to live with limited energy and emotion. This has caused many psychological and physical problems.

Feldenkrais is a method of physical and spiritual awareness which has taken its name from the Israeli physicist Moshe Feldenkrais who developed the method. The aim of this method is to develop self-consciousness beginning from the person’s own body and increase the mental / emotional capacity.

The Feldenkrais Method is Feldenkrais’s process for decreasing pain and limited mobility by increasing self-awareness. The method serves as both a tool for teaching increased bodily and mental awareness and as a method of movement and training.
