Effortless Feldenkrais–A Testimonial…
I am pleased to say I am getting great feedback about these Effortless Feldenkrais Daily Courses – this lovely letter came earlier this week:
Hi Maggy!
Thank you so very much for the course Effortless Sitting!
I have now started to repeat the course…because it has done a miracle with my sciatica!
From the first lesson my sciatica decreased …Before the course I had big problems…I could sit but not lie down…even in bed at night I had severe pain and I need to eat pain reliever to be able to sleep, at least some hours…I also had problems with walking….and all this had been going on for at least two months…
After the first lesson I could sleep without pain! Amazing!
Now, after the fifth lesson I have no pain from my sciatica…I’m sleeping at night and I do not need pain reliever! This is a miracle!
Thank you so very much!
Kind regards
Christina Fagrell

One of the joys of the concept of yin and yang is that we can experience the interplay of these two primal forces within our own being. Our bones are yin—solid, deep inside us forming our true “core”, dense and stable; our muscles are lighter, more dynamic, the activators of our more stable bones, the natural instigators of change—and thus more yang. The clearer our relationship with our astonishingly strong bony skeleton, the freer and more responsive our elastic outer layer of muscle can be—and when we learn to let go of excessive muscular effort, balance becomes light and fluid, and our bones respond to this regular good use by becoming even stronger. This course will demonstrate and develop this dynamic interrelationship, so that you can begin to flow naturally through life to your own inner rhythm.
In this daily immersive we will explore every aspect of bone health, bone function and the capacity of our skeleton to give us instant access to a sense of ourself as a whole integrated system, rather than a thing of isolated parts as anatomy imagery so often implies.
We will be increasing our sensory and motor awareness of this wonderful inner structure, exploring the way force can travel most efficiently through us, in order to abandon habitual excess effort in our muscles and reveal the natural and youthful spring in our step that may be forgotten but is certainly not permanently lost!
This course will be a little more strenuous than my courses usually are—we will be building our understanding of alignment and strength on hands and knees, hands and feet, and in standing—and as always I will be designing the most gentle and manageable versions of these potent lessons to make them available for the widest range of abilities. Do have a conversation with me if you are not sure if the course is for you.

Feldenkrais® Access Courses—Now Available On-Demand
Some of you know I have been planning to find the time to record some on-demand courses of my own for a while now, so I am delighted to be given a bit of a ‘head start’!
I am now an official Feldenkrais Access Affiliate – which means I will get a percentage of any amount you pay.
On this page you will find brief descriptions of these courses, all of which focus on internal integrations of our sphincters, our diaphragms, and all our ‘core’ structures with our skeleton.
Well-Connected (the most recent course) develops these subtle internal themes specifically for those with joint hypermobility, and this makes it an ideal set of lessons for anyone interested in Feldenkrais who is also dealing with chronic health issues – pain, fatigue, anxiety, posture problems, etc.
Follow the links to the relevant articles on this website for more details. Here’s my affiliate link again – it will take you to more information on the Feldenkrais® Access website – including free full-length Awareness Through Movement lessons, one from each course, so you can ‘try before you buy’.
Do not hesitate to get in touch with me if you have questions about any of these courses.
