Each lesson is individually tailored and typically revolves around discovering your unique patterns in movement.  Some of these patterns are effective and help you, on the other hand others could be actually contributing to your problem or situation.  The larger part of the lesson is non-verbal. Gentle, non-invasive touch helps both client and practitioner explore together, to guide, support, encourage and help the discovery or uncovering of, new healthier and more effective movement habits and patterns...
The session is carried out on a wide, low table.
You are fully clothed (we ask you to wear loose fitting garments)
Most people find sessions somewhere between extremely relaxing at the least, to completely life-changing at the best.

How many sessions are needed?


You are always welcome to book one session to try.  We generally recommend  taking a minumum of three, at which point it is usually clear if more are needed; most often people take between six and a dozen sessions.  Alot will depend on the issue presented, and whether it is recent or chronic.
Feldenkrais can be compared to anything where organic learning – somatic learning (‘soma’ is a Latin root meaning ‘of the body’) - as opposed to academic learning - is involved. As with any holistic therapy, working with the whole person implies that there are numerous variants to be taken into consideration.
As with something like learning to play the piano, or to play tennis, some people only ever take one or two lessons. They will remain 'beginners'.
Others may become more curious, or smitten, and go on to ‘learn scales and chords’, or ‘how to serve and return as well as simply hit the ball’.
A few people go on to become professionals and the greater proportion probably fall somewhere in between.
With regard to the Feldenkrais Method, a lot depends on the needs or requirements of the individual concerned.
Different people seek or are happy with, different levels of improvement - and the reasons behind that are as numerous as the number of people who have them.
Generally speaking though, the number of attendances often reflects the depth of the presenting problem, and the level to which the individual wants to take it.
