Description

Gravity is, paradoxically, our biggest ally in sports that involve speed and the control of speed. Only when we have control can we really “let go” and feel the freedom of movement in harmony with nature.  In this workshop we will use Awareness Through Movement lessons and discussion to explore this paradox, with an emphasis on the direct application of the Feldenkrais Method to sports, in particular my specialties of skiing and snowboarding. The specific role the eyes play in performance enhancement will also be incorporated in the lessons.

This workshop is also open to the public.
