Day 2: Good Knees & Flexible Ankles under a Balanced Head
Good Knees, & Flexible Ankles on a Balanced Head Session: Learn to prevent or reduce joint damage and pain in ankles, knees and neck. Precise movement coordination is of vital importance to prevent inflammation and to help your joints heal. Knees have to work in tandem with well-functioning hip joints and ankles. Did you know that your knees’ wellness has to do with how well-balanced you hold your head? Learn how to organize the spine and neck muscles so that the weight will be distributed more evenly over your knees. These Feldenkrais® lessons will help you improve mobility and movement function.
This 3–day Feldenkrais® Weekend immerses you into your whole body, Tip to Toe Fitness in a way you don’t get in a single class or single workshop. Many of us have developed habitual ways of walking, standing, sitting, and so on, that don’t work very effectively; worse, those habits may actually be physically damaging. In this workshop series, you keep learning and improving for 3 consecutive days, giving you extra time to loosen the hold of old habits and embed new, effective patterns of movement.
Walking efficiently and elegantly is very complex and many joints and muscles have to work together harmoniously, like a big orchestra. The different movement lessons within each daily workshop approach the theme from different angles, so that all parts of yourself will benefit, and you will leave with a well-rounded experience and healthy walk.
Attendance at all 3 workshops is highly recommended for immersion; 2 is better than 1; and 1 is better than none at all!
