Individual Lessons 

Functional Integration lessons (FI)

Tailored to your specific needs to help you find a more comfortable and wider range of movement promoting strength and suppleness

Each lesson revolves around a question: How do your habits of movement help you, but at the same time stand in the way of doing better?

 

In a typical lesson, we discuss this, then you lie fully-clothed on a low table as the teacher's hands gently support you, suggesting, encouraging and guiding you towards new ways of moving and organising yourself.

 

Each lesson is unique and designed for you to address your particular habits of moving and holding yourself. Your increasing self-awareness enables you to let go of these habits, to find and choose new patterns of movement; you may find similar development in the flexibility of your thinking and feeling.

 

The lesson will often lead to suggestions for ways of working on your own, in order to help the new choices become a lasting part of your life. Lessons are particularly useful for specific or long-standing problems, to deepen your experience of Awareness Through Movement classes, or to provide ongoing support for your everyday life.

In-person Workshops

Like the weekly classes but longer giving us time to explore the theme in more depth

Saturday 23 March 

Breath... and improve your balance, well-being and movement

​

It’s not complicated. Children and animals breathe well effortlessly. I recently managed to confuse myself listening to an audiobook purporting to teach people how to breathe and then returned to Feldenkreis strategies which did the trick in no time.

 

We will take a playful and slightly sideways  approach to the subject, by using breath to irrigate and open up areas of ourselves we unknowingly keep closed, expanding potential and self-knowledge as we go.

Testimonials

 ‘I've been taking weekly Feldenkrais classes with Sophie for about 2 years now, and from my first class I was hooked. The classes themselves are fun, enjoyable, and interesting. Sophie's style brings lightness and humour to our learning, a very powerful combination.

I find the weekly class leaves me feeling positive, and mindful in a way that nothing else does. I call it my meditation class, as I leave feeling peaceful, and fully present in the moment. It’s gold!’ 

Victoria

‘I've had more movement in my neck after four lessons of Feldenkrais than I've had for twenty years.’

Janice

‘Since starting Feldenkrais classes with Sophie I have noticed a real change in myself. After the class I often feel re-energized so I can go home and get loads more done than I normally can, I also frequently feel more content after a Feldenkrais class with Sophie. It feels as if anything that has been troubling me just washes off me. I don’t know how this works but it is amazing! When I first started doing Feldenkrais  I would never have believed that doing small movements lying on the floor for an hour or so could make such a big difference to me, but it certainly has. I think no matter who you are doing Feldenkrais classes can benefit you. It has also helped me to become more aware of my body and to be more self-aware generally.’
