Course Description
This series of five in-person classes will introduce participants to The Feldenkrais Method®, a powerful and revolutionary approach to improving your life using gentle and mindful movements. Taught by certified Feldenkrais practitioner, Andrew Belser, Director of School of Theatre, Film & Television, these classes involve slow body movements that will focus on mindfulness through movement while exploring topics such as mental health, chronic pain, relieving tension, and moving with more ease and e‑ciency. During these 75-minute sessions, Belser will also dive deeper into the neuroscience of how The Feldenkrais Method® connects mind and body to wellbeing by increasing healthy function, coordination, exibility, and rest. Participants should bring a yoga mat and dress for light movement.
This course is limited to 40 participants.
This course is offered in partnership with the College of Fine Arts.
