More information about this course…

Do you often trip over your own feet? Or have unexplained joint pain? Or joint weakness, dislocations, or frequent injuries?  If so, you are not alone. You may be on the ‘Joint Hypermobility Spectrum.’ Hypermobility is a connective tissue condition that causes our ligaments and tendons to be looser than normal. This can undermine the stability of our joints and make our body’s support system less effective.

Hypermobility effects people of all ages, and its severity varies widely. Some people are slightly hypermobile, and don’t even notice it. Other people with more significant hypermobility experience frequent sprains and intense joint pain that comes and goes, without apparent cause. Additional signs of hypermobility can include numbness in your limbs upon waking, or postural characteristics such as “collapsed” ankles, or “locked” knees.

Feldenkrais lessons are an ideal resource for people with hypermobility, because they are gentle, safe, and personalized. In the most natural way possible, they interact with your brain’s neuroplasticity to improve your muscular and skeletal organization.

This eight-lesson series addresses the unique concerns of living in a hypermobile body – I have hypermobile joints myself, and have been using the Feldenkrais Method to live well with my hypermobility, and navigate its unpredictable challenges.

This series is designed to guide you in developing better proprioception and a helpful understanding of your skeletal structure. You will learn how to reduce joint pain and muscular fatigue by distributing movement more evenly throughout your body, and how to let go of the unconscious effort involved in “holding yourself together,” while gaining comfort, stability, and greater safety in your daily activities. This series is intended for those with hypermobility, and will also benefit anyone interested in improving their movement patterns and sense of structural integrity. Here is my affiliate link if you would like to purchase this course. On the link you will also find sample classes so you can “try before you buy”.

I have written an article about my own experience with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder, and you can read it here:

Dynamic Stability And Hypermobility Syndrome

This series will help you to:

  • Improve your relationship with your structural hypermobility
  • Develop your sense of internal connections
  • Improve your balance and coordination
  • Improve your self-organization in sitting, standing, and moving
  • Feel yourself moving in a more integrated and coordinated way
  • Move with greater confidence and safety
  • Transfer effort from your overworked muscles to your skeletal structure
  • Refresh your essential movement patterns
  • Help your body to feel less unpredictable 

“The depth of sensitivity and awareness that these lessons bring is truly astounding. What brilliance!”
