Find Freedom Through Feldenkrais®
with Nicole Harstead

Do you have a habit of struggling in your everyday life? Often we are taught that if we push hard enough we will get what we want in life. We do this with our bodies too!

The absence of struggle is freedom. During a Feldenkrais `Awareness through movement’ (ATM) lesson you are encouraged to find grace and a sense of ease in your movement. And by dialing back your effort, your nervous system is able to find more helpful movement patterns.

ATM lessons are usually done in lying and your teacher guides you verbally, guiding your awareness of the sensations in your body, and asking you to curiously explore variations in size and timing of movements. You will marvel at what your intelligent body can do. 

"Having more freedom in my body enables me to respond flexibly, rather than having a fixed mindset."

— Shona, ATM student
