Our feet often carry the whole of our bodies and provide us mobility, but we rarely pay them the attention they deserve.

Using the ingenious Feldenkrais movement exercises, Ralph will guide you through a series of gentle and safe movement to free those fabulous feet! You’ll be walking on air in no time!

Feldenkrais is a clever exercise system using gentle movement and mindfulness. You learn to release tightness and unconscious restriction and create natural, graceful and effective actions.

What will we cover?

The movements will be done sitting on a chair but can also be done sitting on the floor.

This class will explain the principles of the Feldenkrais Method®, then apply them to pleasant, safe exercises to improve your body, in this case focusing on those fabulous and functional feet.
You will learn a delightful Feldy style foot massage- for yourself or to help and heal your friends, family and clients.
