In this course you will explore Awareness Through Movement (ATM) classes, which are based on slow and mindful
movements. You will learn how to become more aware of how you move, and how to focus your attention on one thing at the time. Bringing more awareness to your own habitual movement patterns can help you to discover new movement possibilities, resulting in more comfort, mobility, better quality of movement and coordination in work, performance or daily life.

Course programme

We will cover some of the Feldekrais principles and strategies, posture and skeletal organisation, muscular tension, balance and neuroplasticity. We will also look at functional movements like reaching, turning, sitting, standing or walking.

This course is based on experiential learning and is verbally led. The tutor guides you through some slow and small movement sequences, inviting you to pay attention to the sensations in your body. The movements are explored at your own pace and comfort with regular mini-rests. Many of the movements will be done lying on the mat. There may be an opportunity for some pair work. The tutor may give some short presentations on relevant topics. Charlotte is a qualified teacher of the Feldenkrais Method - Awareness Through Movement classes, and current student of the hands on aspect of the Feldenkrais training. She has been teaching a variety of movement disciplines for over 10 years.
