Movement,
Awareness
& Change

The Feldenkrais Method was developed by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, a physicist, engineer and Judo master. He explored the relationship between movement, learning and the nervous system.

It is a gentle movement-based approach that develops awareness of how we move, not simply what we are able to do.

By paying attention to the quality, ease and organisation of movement, we can recognise habitual patterns and inhibitions that may have developed through injury, stress or experience. Exploring new possibilities can help us move with greater ease, comfort and efficiency.

The method works through the relationship between movement, sensation and the nervous system, helping us develop new ways of sensing and organising ourselves.

Sessions may include conversation, observation, hands-on work, and guided movement. Together, we explore your movement patterns and habits. Each session is tailored to your goals and what you need that day.

You might be working to move more efficiently while practising music, improve your balance, support rehabilitation, or explore pain connected to emotional triggers. Sessions with children or babies may combine movement with the child and guidance for the parent.

Yes. We begin by looking at how your body is organized as a whole and working with patterns that may be contributing to your pain. These can involve the fascia, muscles, nerves, or skeleton.

From there, we work directly with the painful area to support circulation, freer movement, and healing.

Finally, you'll receive gentle movements to practise at home.

Yes. My own knee injury and several unsuccessful surgeries are what brought me to this work in the first place.

This work can sit alongside your rehabilitation and strength work, exploring how the whole body has adapted while you continue the treatment your clinicians have recommended.

Physiotherapy is a valuable clinical profession, generally focused on restoring strength, mobility and function after injury or illness.

My work places particular emphasis on the quality and organisation of movement: subtle differences, breathing, coordination, and how you sense and organise yourself. The two sit well together.

Yes, and many people do. The approaches complement one another: they build capacity, and we look at how that capacity is organised and used in movement.

Posture is not simply a matter of strength or of holding yourself upright. We explore unnecessary muscular effort, the organisation of movement, the mobility of the ribs and spine, and whole-body awareness.

When effort is reduced and coordination improves, posture usually changes on its own rather than needing to be held.

The first session is an assessment and an opportunity to experience the work. Some people come for only a few sessions.

Longer-standing or more complex limitations often benefit from ongoing work over a period of time. We decide together as we go.

Not at all. Many people come to improve the quality of their movement, their coordination, posture, physical skills or performance, simply because they are curious about moving well.
