Tanya has been deeply involved in the Feldenkrais Method since 1982. She has studied extensively in Australia and overseas.
The Feldenkrais Method® facilitates learning through lessons that explore movement, posture, breathing. The fruit of such learning is improved ability in all aspects of life.
The Feldenkrais Method is person-centred and is adapted for individuals and specific populations. As a result, it is beneficial in a wide variety of applications - from Childhood Development to Older Adults, Sport and Performance to Chronic Conditions, Injury Prevention to Rehabilitation. People of all ages can participate, from babies and children through to senior citizens with interests ranging from dancers, musicians and athletes to people seeking to relieve movement difficulties, stiffness or pain, or simply to learn a new way. The Feldenkrais Method uses the brain's natural ability to change in response to specific sensory input. This neuroplasticity is central to the effectiveness of the Feldenkrais Method.
Participating in this unique learning process can lead to better health and well-being, improved attention, thinking ability, emotional resilience, posture, movement coordination and balance, easier ways of doing tasks, easier breathing, reduced pain and control over muscular tension.
The Feldenkrais Method is delivered in two distinct ways:
Classes called “ Awareness Through Movement®” lessons ( ATM) - Tanya guides the participants through a planned sequence of movement explorations. Attention is drawn to the process of each movement pattern. Through observing their movements, participants learn easier ways of moving in everyday activities. Exploration of movement in these classes is designed to improve overall wellbeing.
Individual lessons called "Functional Integration" (FI) - Tanya uses gentle touch to facilitate learning new options for moving more easily.
