I like what I do. No, I love what I do. I am a Feldenkrais Practitioner.
The Feldenkrais Method has been around since the middle of the last century. But in the United States few people know about it. In Germany, by contrast, Feldenkrais classes are as common as yoga classes. But the Method is getting more attention here these days.
Choose one response. Feldenkrais is:

If you chose any of the responses to the right, you are correct! Moshe Feldenkrais, D.Sc. (1904-1984), developed the Feldenkrais Method® of Somatic Education.
