Classes: Tuesday evenings
Individual lessons: Tatsumaki, SLOUGH
Practice:
Our clinic hosts practitioners of various techniques and complimentary
medicine methods within a martial arts centre. We are all committed to
holistically enabling people to improve their health and ability to move.
In addition to our usual classes, we run Well Being Days, when participants
get to choose three one-hour group classes and two 15-minute treatment
tasters in between a Japanese buffet lunch and a champagne tea.
I currently work with martial artists who want to improve their flexibility
and movement; injured horse riders; people with neurological behavior
patterns they would like to change; people with long term chronic pain; and
people who have been referred to Feldenkrais by chiropractors and
physiotherapists for help in changing habits that are hindering the healing
process.
I teach children theatre skills, Aikido and Feldenkrais, and thoroughly
enjoy seeing the huge difference Feldenkrais can make to a child's
development and movement.
I am also involved in developing Feldenkrais classes for Training Corporate
Solutions which, as the name suggests, runs training programmes for the
corporate sector.
Biography:
I completed a performing arts degree before training and working as a
journalist until I re-trained in comedy.
Feldenkrais is well known in physical theatre and I found it invaluable for
improving my skills and avoiding injury in a very physically demanding
working life of performing to a wide variety of audiences and teaching
children.
After 10 years I finally decided to become a Feldenkrais practitioner and,
in my first year of training, was introduced to Aikido — which in turn has
become a passion. The Feldenkrais method and Aikido share basic principles
that good technique is more effective than strength and that awareness is
one of the keys to leading a full and healthy life.
