Deborah Steinmann, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner. “While working as a physical therapy assistant, I discovered Feldenkrais as a way to support individuals in their own holistic healing. Over time, we all develop habitual ways of moving that may not be comfortable or efficient. Through Feldenkrais, I can guide each person’s discovery of their own movement patterns and share their excitement as they find new and more efficient ways to move.
For over twenty years, I have worked with newborns with developmental delays, 96 year olds with breathing and balance difficulties, and every age and ability in between.
Each of us can improve how we move through life mentally, physically and emotionally, and Feldenkrais can guide us into that curious question and answer dialogue. To learn more about the Feldenkrais Method download this PDF article.
A Solution is Waiting for You.
