About the Feldenkrais Method

What is Feldenkrais?

Pronounced ‘feld-en-krise’, it’s essentially a series of movement exercises. But don’t expect big movements. Think small. That’s because by doing less, you achieve more. Exercises are done slowly, easily and with minimum effort. We’ll help you correct old habits with new, more efficient actions. So you’ll be able to move more freely, long after the class is over.

What are the benefits?

It improves your posture (particularly if you stare at a computer screen all day), releases tension, eases pain, increases flexibility, helps with balance and by teaching you to move ‘without effort’ it can give you more energy in your day-to-day life.

Who can it help?

If you suffer from arthritis, asthma, back pain, balance problems, breathing difficulties, cerebral palsy, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, hip or shoulder problems, learning difficulties, neck and head pain, RSI, Parkinson’s, scoliosis, stiffness, stroke, whiplash or injuries then you can benefit from Feldenkrais.

Who can benefit:


  • adults of all ages,

  • all levels of fitness or unfitness

  • all body types

  • beginners and continuing Feldenkrais students


Gentle safe exercises, developed by the remarkable Moshe Feldenkrais from the 1950s and now taught internationally by recognised and accredited practitioners help anyone who wants to move more capably, feel better about their body, or develop their body mind connection.



Please contact Ralph today if you would like to know how Feldenkrais can help you.
