Feldenkrais Method

What is the Feldenkrais Method?

The Feldenkrais Method is a gentle movement- and perception-practice. It supports the ability to understand and change movement-habits. The underlying movement-sequences are rooted in developmental movements, in Judo and in daily life.

How does practicing the Feldenkrais Method look like?

Although the Feldenkrais Method is based on movement and despite its amazing effects on individual movement ability, it is not gymnastics. Rather, it is a method to learn learning. It facilitates access to unused capacities of our brain. Thereby, the Feldenkrais Method enables learning and development for the whole organism.

In the field of movement it creates ease, effortlessness, choices and skillfulness. It fosters economy, coordination and inner logic of individual movement.

Feldenkrais Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Sounder SleepTM Teacher, Naturopath

I am a Heilpraktiker (since 2000), Feldenkrais teacher (since 1995), Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (since 2019) as well as Sounder Sleep teacher (since 2010). I receive further impulses from the Asian healing and martial arts.
The focus of my practice is on body-oriented learning methods. Everything I offer aims to show people how to help themselves. My claim is to pick up each person where she/he is at the moment.
