Remember Your Bones
The skeleton is the anti-gravity mechanism of the body. By studying our own skeleton, we can find the limits to our own movements.

Healing with Humor: An In-Depth Experience in Spinal Awareness -- Patrick Douce


Spinal Awareness is a way of learning, not a therapy or treatment. This method improves body awareness, flexibility, posture and most chronic and acute conditions of the body. It is taught with movement, touch, and group interaction. It is based on the work of Moshe Feldenkrais, Chinese-Indonesian Martial Art, The Esalen Experience, and continues to evolve.

The movements in this special 4-week program are quite different than normal exercises. They emphasize learning how to move in ways that stimulate your awareness of your own body. Hands-on lessons will be taught that greatly speed up improvements. These touch sessions are safe and noninvasive.

This program will evolve with humor and playfulness. Fun partner lessons will be intermixed to help bring about not only freedom in the body but the return to the childlike energy so essential to us all.
