Walking on Air:
Feldenkrais Method Workshop

with Scott Clark

Saturday 3 July 2010
10.30am-4.30pm, £45

Walking is one of the best forms of exercise as long as it is easy and comfortable. For many of us, the ease of walking is restricted by difficulties in the ankles or knees or lower back, or even higher, in the upper back or neck. What we need is a way of sorting out the smaller bits of ourselves, and unifying them into a larger pattern of grace and power. Most of this workshop will consist of gentle movements lying on the floor, but we will be aiming at coordinations that enable the more robust activities of walking and even running.

(Phone Scott on 020 8469 0245 for venue.)

Bioenergetics Weekend

with Guy Gladstone

Saturday & Sunday 10/11 July 2010
10am-6pm, £105

July

2010

How does my body respond to stress? How does my body help or hinder my self-assertion? Can I be spontaneous in an appropriate way? Whether or not you ask these or similar questions bioenergetics is about your capacity for pleasure and your available energy. Energy flows or doesn't within our bodies. we need to move downwards in ourselves to discover the involuntary core impulses of good feeling and how these have been interrupted by physical tension and emotional blocks.

Energizing exercises, massage, and work with posture and body image will be used in pairs and in small groups. Otherwise members' needs and their interactions will decide the specific emphases of this group. An overall aim for the weekend is embodiment of balanced functioning between head heart and gut.
