Tuesday Evening ATM with Antoinette (online)

Feldenkrais is a somatic learning method that practises self-reflection through movement. The participants explore basic movement patterns in unfamiliar configurations to observe and unravel patterns of movement, thought, emotion and action. The method encourages playfulness and curiosity – has a non-goal approach – not expecting any result or arriving at a specific point by the end of the lesson. Nothing is to be done well – nothing can be measured in terms of good or bad. Taking care of oneself and patience are some of the core principles for practising to accept one’s current level of ability and practising softness towards oneself.

ATM is the group format with which Feldenkrais practitioners guide through a somatic learning process – using verbal instructions to facilitate simple and yet complex movement explorations. Here movement itself is used as the fundamental tool for a deep personal learning process. The guided movement explorations help to increase bodily awareness and improve contact with the whole self.
