In the 'Taking it Easy' workshop you will learn techniques to support your own well-being and that of others.
Participants are usually a mix of those with their own concerns, and/or are caregivers who want to add to their skills.
Prior experience with Feldenkrais or TTouch is not required.
Most of us have a tendency to move or carry ourselves in ways that are not as comfortable as they could be - and may even cause us pain. Do you ever sit or lie down and shortly afterwards change to a position that's more comfortable? It's pretty common. The odd thing is that we don't learn to choose the consistently more comfortable position to begin with! One part of this workshop addresses that: finding out how we can Take it Easy.
The process involves discovering how we can identify which of our postures and movements are easy and comfortable, and which cause distress. We listen for those whispers within ourselves that say "ow!" or "aaahhh". When we can interpret what we feel and observe, we become able to discern differences, explore other possibilities, and make choices about what we do.
You will also learn techniques to share with others: Some simple yet powerful and profound
Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® (ATM) lessons to address stiffness, discomfort or dysfunction. With the intent and focus of TTouch For You® we'll explore TTouch and bodywraps, and learn how to address some specific health care needs.
Both Feldenkrais and TTouch offer such a generous range of applications that we can easily vary the content to reflect the participants' experience and interest. If you want more information about what to expect please contact me at

Join us at a workshop, and gain a new appreciation of how you can improve your world "one TTouch at a time"... and in addition, and to quote Moshe Feldenkrais, discover how to "make the impossible, possible; the possible, easy; and the easy, elegant."
