“I have to say, despite feeling rather odd directly after leaving the clinic, then an intensity of discomfort in my neck later that evening, the following day I felt really different, and for the better. My neck pain and tension has improved massively, almost completely gone. The numbness in my hands has lessened, so to has my shoulder pain. Also the pins and needles have almost gone. I feel lighter too, if that makes sense. I also had a very emotional reaction to Feldenkrais, which did concern me somewhat, but then I came home and read about this and I now understand that some people do have strong emotional responses to Feldenkrais and that this shouldn’t concern me as our physical self, thoughts and emotions are all connected. It could also be my response to someone being kind and doing something for me personally, the relaxation of being supported and the slow movement of the awareness lesson.”

The F.I sessions have worked as a kind of slow infiltration, it is increasingly affecting how I occupy my body in movement. As though my body and the sensation of my body are coming into synch.
It’s become about noticing things rather than correcting things – thats how the sessions are. They are exploratory and suggestive which gives a lot of space, to bring what I know and understand of movement, body and sensation
The hands on approach, different to the Feldenkrais group workshops, gives an extra attention and information to something through touch – the touch is often so light and tiny but very direct, specific, knowing. Its a touch that seems to bypass the muscles, tendons and meat of the body and touch the skeleton – For me this is one of the most exciting affecting aspect of the sessions, getting to the skeleton. Mostly makes me feel very light, simple and easy and sometimes takes a little while to ground again.
The very small movements and touches can have a huge impact on the body. Not in huge explosive excitable ‘wows’ but in deeply quiet confirming ‘wows’.
Over the weeks my body increasingly integrated and recognised the information it was receiving from the session – like it was building up a memory bank of sensation of moving.
It assumes nothing and corrects nothing, but a lot happens.
