"Movement is life" - Dr Moshé Feldenkrais

There is a widely accepted presumption that after a certain age, our vitality and ability to learn begin to decrease. Common complaints may include forgetfulness, pain or stiffness, difficulty climbing stairs or getting out of bed, tripping or falling more often,  lack of energy etc.  

 

However, by tapping into our brain's ability to change and learn at any age through movement, thinking and awareness, the work has shown that it is possible to improve the typical symptoms of ageing such as issues with mobility and flexibility, mental clarity and strength, balance and posture, chronic aches and pains. 

 

Experience greater body awareness, create new neural connections, learn to move with ease and wake up to new possibilities for vitality and wellness.

 

Examples of positive outcomes include:  

 

  • Improved Strength and Flexibility

  • Increased Mobility and Balance

  • Increased Vitality and Coordination

  • Rehabilitation Post-Injury or Surgery

“M fractured her wrist and still experienced pain, stiffness and reduced mobility in the wrist, hand, arm and shoulder one year after the cast had been removed and after several months of physiotherapy.  After one lesson, she noticed improved circulation in the hand and arm, reduced pain and stiffness, and increased range of motion in the shoulder, arm, hand and wrist."

​“Y engaged in an intense course of physiotherapy following a cycling accident, but eventually reached a plateau regarding his rehabilitation.  Through a series of guided lessons, he noticed improved balance and coordination, increased flexibility and strength, and also a level of mental clarity that he had not experienced since the accident."

“After a fracture to her femur and surgery to insert metal rods in both legs, L engaged in regular physiotherapy but was unable to climb stairs unassisted and continued to walk with a waddle.  After a series of guided lessons, she was once again able to climb stairs unassisted and also walked with greater ease and fluidity .”
