This is a floor exercise version that offers different movements from the seated chair version.
What will we cover?
This class will explain the principles of the Feldenkrais Method®, then apply them to pleasant, safe exercises to free up the neck, head and shoulders.
You will find enjoyable and interesting ways to neutralise the tensions that build up in the neck and techniques for ongoing self-maintenance.
