Owner's Manual Series: Focus on the Feet Part A with Vicki Robinson

Focus on organizing flexion, extension of the feet, toes, ankles, through your whole self.
This workshop will focus on how we move through the forefoot, heel and ankle. Having coordinated movement throughout the whole of ourselves can begin with how we contact the ground.

This 2-hour session focuses on a movement theme and includes at least two movement lessons. These lessons will include activities lying on mats on the ground, as well as possibly seated and standing. Please speak to Vicki if you have concerns about these positions.

Fee:  $50 | $45 early bird by April 15, 2024

Attuning: An In-Town Gentle Movement Retreat with Sheri Cohen

During this summer retreat we’ll combine some outdoor time with our gentle movement practice indoors. We will tune our senses to the forms and movements present in our natural world—including the beautiful Dharma Gate garden—and allow our movement and creative imagination to respond simply. Our time together will include a Feldenkrais®Awareness Through Movement® lesson, some meditative observation practices, and guided creative exploration in movement and writing.

Why Come to a Gentle Movement Retreat?
Come for some solitary time, or share introspective time with new and familiar friends. We’ll share the nourishment that movement, awareness, and the process of self-discovery provide.

Owner's Manual Series: Focus on the Feet Part B with Vicki Robinson

Focus on organizing the ‘edges of the feet’

Owner's Manual Workshop Series with Vicki Robinson, Feldenkrais® and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner® (Session 4)

Saturdays, Feb 10 - Mar 2, 2024, 1-3 pm
A four-part Feldenkrais movement class designed to increase your understanding of how you move and to improve movement for all activities.  Each 2-hour session focuses on a movement theme and includes at least two movement lessons.

Sign up for the full 4-week series or choose the session(s) you want!
Single session:  $55 | $50 early bird by Jan 15, 2024
Full series:  $200 | $180 early bird by Jan 15, 2024

Space is limited to 12 participants. Sign up here!

Session 1: Folding (flexion) with your whole self
Feb 10, 2024, 1 - 3 pm
Flexion is essential to all movement.
Folding well means utilizing the larger joints to support a healthy and balanced spine and strong and mobile hip joints.

Flexion is considered the most primal and self-protective of movements. Folding well is essential for all movement, and our culture (of chairs) tends to bias our movement postures, often leading to low back and neck issues. We’ll look at movement lessons that support suppleness in the spine, pelvis and hip joints.

Session 2: Lengthening (extension) with your whole self
Feb 17, 2024, 1 - 3 pm
Finding our whole length is essential to our biped species.
We’ll explore optimal movement for extension, balance and healthy use of all the joints.

Many of us are admonished to ‘straighten our spines’, and walk upright. In this lesson we’ll explore the curvatures of the spine, our pelvis and eyes to find efficient and optimal length.

Session 3: Turning (rotation) with your whole self
Feb 24, 2024, 1 - 3 pm
How do you turn around yourself with the greatest ease, balance, full body awareness?
We’ll look at the important connections all the way from the eyes all the way down to your feet and toes.

The ability to turn around ourselves with ease is important for good health, and this supports a balanced nervous system when we can orient to the environment for cues of safety. From the feet up to the eyes, turning is a whole body event.

Session 4: Breathing (respiration) with your whole self
March 2, 2024, 1 - 3 pm
One of the best things we can do for ourselves is sense into the full capacity of our breath.
As we expand our awareness and intention into our full anatomy, we can sense breath far beyond the abdomen and chest.
 

In this class we’ll build on the previous three sessions to explore breathing in an entirely differently way. Most of us utilize a small percentage of our breathing capacity; this session will expand your breathing horizons.
