Feldenkrais workshop with Anne Robertson
Sunday 22 October, 2-5pm
Suitable for all
Exploring Good Posture
Many of us worry about our posture. We make a great effort to do as we were told as kids, to sit or stand up straight. Even those who are active and exercise regularly often express these concerns.
It becomes a live issue for us, perhaps as we age and experience aches and pains, or feel we are suffering as a result of long hours of sitting at a computer.
October’s Feldenkrais Workshop will look at these concerns and suggest an alternative way of thinking about and achieving good functional posture that can serve us in every aspect of our daily lives.
Moshe Feldenkrais had a uniquely functional approach to the question of good posture. Instead of seeing good posture as a series of static positions in which we use muscular effort to achieve an externally imposed ideal, he suggested that we can learn to find for ourselves the ideal organisation for any particular action. A concept he called ‘acture’.
When our skeletons counteract the pull of gravity our muscles are freed from unnecessary effort. We don’t need to pull in our bellies, stiffen our backs and fix our shoulders, and we can move more easily, efficiently and elegantly.
