The Embodied Life™

An Adv. Workshop with Russell and Linda Delman

Sunday, Feb 7th, 2021

10:30 am – 12:30 pm (PacificTime)

FREE for NCNN Regional Members

In this seminar we will present our understanding of the essentials of Moshe’s vision and specific practices to experience and teach some of Moshe’s essential wisdom in shorter, more accessible forms. These practices are reliable, simple, and, above all, learnable for all.

The Embodied Life™ emerged from our long practice of The Feldenkrais Method®. We support Feldenkrais practitioners in potentiating the effects of their work, as well as deepening in their own Embodied Awareness.

— Russell and Linda Delman

Free Registration for NNCN Members will be Available in Jan 2021

In this class series we will address various Functional themes that are of particular interest in the work with children. We will use short ATMs, short video clips of myself or of Dr. Feldenkrais working, functional strategies, movement observation, lecture and group Q&A to explore various themes. You will also be assigned a few of Dr. Feldenkrais’s lessons to watch outside of class time. We will discuss these lessons together, highlighting particular aspects of each one.

We will clarify the general sequence of development and come to a better understanding of what each new variation contributes to the overall abilities of the person. This will include a discussion of reflexes and what it means when a medical person says that the child is stuck in the reflexes.

We will address the question of when to follow a developmental sequence and when not to follow it. Dr. Feldenkrais himself said different things about this issue at different times.

We will identify ways of having the same Functional conversation with the child in many positions or situations.

We will explore accessing the nervous system through the skeleton, through the muscles, and through the environment. This includes the notion of turning down the noise in the system so the learning can land.

There are two sessions. You may choose either the Tuesday option or the Sunday option. Enrollment is limited to 30 attendees for each session.

• Session 1: Tuesdays, Jan. 19-Feb. 23, from 12:00 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. PST
• Session 2: Sundays, Jan. 24-Feb. 28, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. PST

Exploring ATM as Self FI with Deborah Bowes, DPT, GCFT
FGNA sponsored Continuing Education for Feldenkrais Practitioners

Watch the recorded session below

Awareness through Movement and Functional Integration are complementary processes. In this class, you will explore ‘tweaking’ an ATM to give yourself the Functional Integration lesson you would like to have. You’ll use your own hands to touch, support, and bring awareness to the jaw, throat and facial expression. It’s like a Feldenkrais facelift! You will gain insight and ideas that you can bring into your practice with your students…whenever we will be able to get back to that! In the meantime, you can care for yourself and then, teach your clients to do the same!

Deborah Bowes, Feldenkrais Trainer, has been teaching in Feldenkrais Trainings for over 28 years and been in private practice over 33 years. She teaches and lectures a lot, in person, and online for Feldenkrais groups and other organizations. Out of a need to reduce the habitual tension in her face and jaw, she has used these processes for her own self-care and wants to share with you so that you can do the same.

Wednesday, May 27th 3 pm – 4 pm PDT
