At Okanagan Feldenkrais™ Centre we reconnect people with their natural ability to move, think and

The Feldenkrais Method® is a process for achieving life-long physical improvement. Through precise movement and skilled touch, people gain a better sense of their bodies and a way for them to overcome the unproductive cycles of self-criticism and helplessness that can get in the way of their continued well-being. Instead of focusing on getting back to normal, people focus on how to immediately begin looking forward to better than ever. It is gentle and useful to people of all levels of fitness and flexibility. People who do Feldenkrais® talk about their increased awareness of and respect for their bodies. When they experience pain, they often feel empowered to help themselves and to get on with the things that they love. They often feel more optimistic and increasingly autonomous in situations. They often find themselves feeling confident and curious about new physical activity. Awareness Through Movement® classes and workshops provide you with a wide variety of physical opportunities designed to expand your boundaries while simultaneously creating greater ease. You begin to discover and harness the sources of your inner strength and stability. One-on-one Functional Integration® sessions address your personal needs and provide you with immediate strategies for overcoming obstacles, becoming resilient, and empowering yourself to get on with what you love to do. The Okanagan Feldenkrais® Centre also offers regularly scheduled Feldenkrais®LIVE online ATM® classes.

My wife and I are self-declared “Olympics junkies.” We will watch almost any sport, and love the moments when human spirit triumphs. We cheered when the Dutch runner fell in the 1500 and then got up and started running again - and won her heat.

We pretend to know what constitutes a good dive and really only look at the entry splash. We hold our breath at moments, jump up and down at others, and simply smile at the beauty and talents of these athletes who have dedicated so much of their lives to these moments.

Yesterday, I heard Andre de Grasse talk about relaxing into the end of his race. In my class, I talked about the importance of breath and relaxing into our best selves.

This method has helped me relax into my best self, and that is a gold-medal gift, to be sure.

Hello friends,
I'm so excited about today's announcement that "low-intensity indoor fitness classes" can resume in person, starting immediately. So, if you want to join me in the studio tomorrow or another day, I'd be happy to see you.

Okanagan Feldenkrais will continue to follow all protocols, including masks for indoor spaces. And, of course, our classes will continue online, so you can still join from home.

Thank you for your support over the past challenging months.

Hello all, you'll probably have seen today's Public Health Orders, which includes a suspension of low-intensity group exercise. One-on-one appointments can continue with careful consideration of the COVID-19 safety protocols; however, from March 30 (tomorrow) until April 19, please remain at home and attend the daily classes online (as the majority currently are). If you have any questions, please reach out.

By order and direction of the Provincial Health Officer (PHO), all events and social gatherings are suspended to significantly reduce COVID-19 transmission related to social interactions and travel.

01/01/2021

To all my clients and friends - thank you for your support this past year. I am so thankful that I have been able to keep my doors open during the pandemic, and that I continue to be able to help people move and feel better. I wish you and your families good health, happiness, and hope in 2021.
