 Greetings!
|
Hello Everyone, it's conference time!
While I am in LA finishing my last semester of school, your representative Aviva will be attending the conference. I'm going to miss you all at the regional luncheon meeting there. We've talked about the possibility of me Skyping in, and we'll continue to explore that.
I'd love to be there --- even as a talking head on Aviva's laptop.
Just to let you know where we are with an advanced training for 2013. I have contacted
Dennis Leri and Olena Nitefor and am awaiting a response.
I'd like to remind you that there is still time to loan your working Feldenkrais tools
such as: portable tables, stools, rollers, head cushions for the Conference and
receive Feldy Bucks for the Bookstore - click here to sign up.
Qick link: Bookstore
The newsletter is a great place to read and catch up with each other! I want to encourage
you all to start writing us and telling us about all the exciting things YOU are doing in your Feldenkrais practice. Or I am going to start writing long reports about my children :-)
Enjoy the rest of your summer and have a splendid conference!
Bridget

Feldenkrais and Smartroller - Building Awareness with Stacy Barrows
at the INNER IDEA October 27, 2012
Feldenkrais and the Smartroller will be featured in workshops at the INNER IDEA conference this year, titled: Feldenkrais® for Performance: Building Awareness by Stacy Barrows
You know that proper form is the key to optimal athletic performance. But maintaining correct alignment, body position, balance and breathing during exercise requires a well-developed kinesthetic sensibility that does not come naturally to everyone. Discover how the Feldenkrais Method® cultivates movement awareness, enabling both athletes and weekend warriors to achieve dynamic functional posture, eliminate
counterproductive muscular tension and promote graceful, efficient movement.
Dates: Saturday Oct. 27th and 28th
Times: Saturday Oct. 27 2:30-4:20
Sunday Oct. 28th 7:40 -9:30
Place: La Quinta Resort and Club, Palm Springs
