Feldenkrais ATM classes

 

Lessons begin at the beginning of the hour and complete at the end of the hour. Students take away "mini-moves" for them to play with on their own that help them reinforce the learning between lessons. Drop-ins are always welcome!

"I am not sure exactly what you do, during private sessions you moved my arm, leg or head ever so gently and when I got up I feel like a new woman. It's like magic.The more I work with you and come to classes, the more I am coming to understand that you are teaching us to be independent and take better care of ourselves. Thank you."

—Retired teacher

"Surprised, delighted and so appreciative. My words to describe my fairly miraculous experience with LeeAnn. I went to LeeAnn for some support on my 2 year path to walking again after breaking both legs and 5 surgeries. I had done a few Feldenkrais sessions in the past and knew that it couldn't hurt, but frankly, I was skeptical about what it could provide me in my current situation. My leg that is still not functioning is so impacted with scar tissue, I didn't know that Feldenkrais would make much of a difference. WELL! What a surprise. The new "practices" I've now incorporated as a result of a private session and a Bones for Life Workshop, has paved the way for pain free movement in my foot for the first time in 26 months, and a new pattern for using my leg and foot that I didn't know of before. I now have a "gait" that allows me to move with more ease and hope for continuous improvements for a complete recovery. I'm so grateful to LeeAnn, and look forward to more work together."
