The Feldenkrais Method

We'd like to take this opportunity to tell you about the Feldenkrais Method® of somatic education, and how it can benefit you!

Still have questions?  As always, feel free to contact us! 


"It is a gift that at almost 60 years of age I have found a renewed sense of vitality and energy by shifting ingrained body patterns that where developed out of need but are no longer needed. I went to Sharon for specific pain issues and have come away with a new image of myself. I am grateful for the work and the wisdom that Sharon has brought into my life."

~Marlaine Darfler, Licensed Massage Therapist

The Feldenkrais Method®

The Feldenkrais Method® is for anyone who wants to reconnect with their natural abilities to move, think, and feel.  Whether you want to be more comfortable sitting at your computer, playing with your children and grandchildren, or performing a favorite pastime, these gentle lessons improve your overall sense of well being. 

Learning to move with less effort makes daily life easier.  Because the Feldenkrais Method® focuses on the relationship between movement and thought, increased mental awareness and creativity accompany physical improvements.  Everyone, from athletes and artists to administrators and attorneys, can benefit from the Feldenkrais Method®.

After experiencing Feldenkrais® lessons, people often express feelings of relaxation and ease.  They move and breathe more freely and find their thoughts have more clarity.  The learning process is full of pleasant surprises and personal breakthroughs.

Functional Integration

Awareness Through Movement

Feldenkrais® lessons teach you the means to take charge of your own improvement. 

These lessons are offered in individual sessions called Functional Integration® (FI), and in a group setting, Awareness Through Movement® (ATM).  We are all different, and I encourage you to discover which learning style is most appropriate for your needs.

Each Functional Integration® (FI) session is designed to meet your personal needs. Communicating through gentle touch and movement in addition to words, Sharon guides you in your one-on-one process of self-discovery. FI sessions are especially useful for persons who might benefit from more individualized attention, or who desire more focused work.

In Awareness Through Movement® (ATM) lessons, Sharon verbally guides you through a sequence of gentle movements intended to develop a greater awareness of how you move. As you learn to let go of limiting habits, you will find satisfaction in your newfound abilities.
