Working with gravity to gain speed and paradoxically control, is the biggest challenge facing skiers and snowboarders.  Having control allows us to really ‘let go’ and move freely through the terrain.  In this workshop, movement exercises and discussions explore this paradox using lessons from the Feldenkrais Method.  A secondary focus in the lessons will incorporate performance enhancement through attention to use of the eyes.
