BODY CENTER. SUPPORT AND BALANCE. REGULAR GROUP

9 Online Sessions for Developing Body Awareness

"The goal is a person organized in such a way as to move with minimum effort and maximum efficiency, not through muscular strength, but by increasing awareness of how movement works."
– Moshe Feldenkrais

The center of the body is especially susceptible to sensorimotor amnesia—a state of "forgetting" where the connection between the nervous system and muscles is disrupted. This manifests as stiffness, chronic pain, inhibited breathing, and poor posture. Few people realize that many health problems arise from a distorted self-image stored in the nervous system. These issues can be addressed through retraining.

This course will focus on the abdomen, waist, lower back, buttocks, as well as the respiratory and pelvic diaphragms. These areas form a cylinder, which serves as the main support and foundation for all movements.

Who Will Benefit:

This course is suitable if you want to:

• Learn to manage stress and fatigue independently.

• Improve joint and spine mobility.

• Reduce pain caused by sensorimotor amnesia.

• Build a better connection with your body.

• Improve posture.

• Enhance stability and balance.

• People with chronic muscle pain.

• Those with spine and joint conditions.
