Mark your calendar the wonderful workshop with Julie Peck on March 14 & 15. Julie is a delightful Feldenkrais teacher. She is warm, thoughtful, with a systemic understanding of learning. All participants will discover many new ways of being in this workshop.
At the beginning of this gentle lesson, Julie invites us to observe the outline of our body, and then to observe the places that touch the floor. At the end of the lesson Julie brings us back to these images to allow us to compare what has changed, has become refined. In between, Julie invites us to move in increasingly effortless ways; and she also gives us suggestions on how we can think about what we are doing. Julie called it A Beginner's Lesson.

Dr. Feldenkrais wrote, "Each person has an impression of his own manner of speaking, walking, and carriage which seems personal and immutable-- the only possible way..." More importantly, "he identifies himself with this image." And so the self image is more than a passive "impression", it is somehow intertwined with each of our sense of ourselves. Dr. Feldenkrais proposes a process to learn more about what is happening: "... so that one may actually feel the conditions and possibilities I am describing." He advises the reader, "Lie down on your back; mentally and methodically scan your entire body. You will discover that you can concentrate on certain parts more easily than others, ... you usually will not have consciousness of these other parts during an action." The critical observation is that "In fact, certain parts almost never figure in the self-image during action." When parts are not included in the self-image, then disfunction is the outcome.
