For this post I've decided to share a wonderful letter that I recently received from one of my clients. It is timely as the Olympics are in full swing in London, England. Karen was a highly competitive gymnast in her younger years and now she is starting to realize how [...]
Function. Melts. Form. I LOVE - like so love - those three words in that order. The order is important! It’s a title from a chapter in a book called, How Buildings Learn, by Stewart Brand. When I read it I couldn't let that concept go. What this means is that as [...]

People often don't believe me when I say, "I haven't stretched in ten years". It's true. Sure I move and have a practice of body awareness that involves feeling where I might have a few tight spots here and there, but I no longer hold static stretches for long periods [...]
Several people said, "It's magic!" I read the above orange letters in a colleagues newsletter a day or so ago. The magic that is being talked about is what people said after they experienced some good old Feldenkrais-Love. I get similar comments from my class participants. I've been called a [...]
