Movement Learning: An Intro to the Feldenkrais Method®

Overview 18 Lovely Attendees

About this FieldTrip

Movement habits–We can’t learn with them, yet we can’t function without them. Your most basic movement habits allow you to do what you want to do without having to think your way through every step. They also get in your way when you’re trying to do something new or do something in a new way. So how do you resolve the contradiction between the need for automated movement patterns and the need to improve your old skills and learn new ones?

At this FieldTrip, we’ll experience the Feldenkrais® approach to wiring and rewiring your brain for learning, refining, adapting, and innovating. Feldenkrais Practitioner, Michelle Drerup, will introduce us to Feldenkrais and guide us through a couple of movement lessons.

Wear clothes that are comfortable for moving. No need to bring a mat. You may be moving while sitting in a chair, standing and/or lying on mats that will be provided.

How to make the most of FieldTrips

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.

Show up fully

Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.

Stay curious

Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going! 

Celebrate your host

Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.

Support each other

We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things.  Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.

Not vibing?

It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
