Consider that the quality of one's movement deeply impacts the quality of one's life. Ask yourself if the quality of your movement is supporting the quality of life to which you aspire. If you think there might be room for wider possibilities or improvement, give the Feldenkrais Method® a try!  See our article about the method. Check out this video on YouTube.

Move With Elan's late Spring/early Summer series of Awareness Through Movement® classes will be held in Durham and Carrboro beginning May 22 or 23, 2008. Different venues meet on different days. (See class schedule for specific dates.) Note that in any given series, the lessons can be enjoyed by anyone with curiosity about learning how one does what they do makes a difference in exactly what one does.

Durham classes on Thursdays (beginning 5/22) and Carrboro classes on Fridays (beginning 5/23) will explore "Transitions". Life is a process of growth and change, yet change can be tough. Finding a way from "here" to "there" in your life can be an expression of creativity or it can be a struggle. Moving from one position to another in space can be done haphazardly with great effort or with simplicity and elegance. Overwhelming effort can decrease your sensitivity to finding the easiest possible way from here to there. This class will explore simple physical movements of transition: from lying down to sitting, from sitting to standing, from standing to lying down as a metaphor for moving through transition more easily in your life. No struggle or holding your breath is necessary. You’ll be amazed at how simple it is to get from "here" to "there".
Fee for the 8-week series is $72, or drop in for $12 per class. Register by calling 967-8013.
