Experiencing the Feldenkrais Method® is a journey of discovery and learning, exploring the relationship between the movements of our body and the movements of our mind. We learn to observe and wonder so we can learn new and easier ways to move that are more efficient, more comfortable, and more relaxed.

My 40 years of helping others discover how to improve their quality of life has taught me it’s essential to learn to feel the relationships between the stress and tension which are involved with the flow of all our movements. We wouldn’t be able to move without the stress and tension created by the muscles of our body in their relationship to gravity. But we can improve the balance between them so we can move with greater ease and grace as we learn to relax and let go of unnecessary tension.

This journey of discovery is the same for horses as it is for their humans.

With my hands I ask questions about the ways you move and how that can be more comfortable. Your body’s responses lead me through explorations of the relationships between the tensions you hold and the ease and flow of your movements. Your subconscious mind learns to become aware of, consider, and evaluate new movement options. Then you’ll find new possibilities which your bodymind can integrate naturally. Movement finds new expression through the release of the unnecessary tension you discover, giving you greater confidence in the natural ease and flow you’re able to access more fully with the support of your core. Then, as your awareness learns how to discover and respond to ever more subtle signals of resistance and ease, your movements will become more and more your own. You’ll find that you naturally express your individuality more freely, with greater assurance and grace.

I find it’s especially rewarding to work together with horses and their humans. As horse and rider learn to become more aware of and in tune with their own bodies, they find it’s easy and natural to share that awareness with each other in their adventure of collaborative partnership. And as they discover more about their ability to listen to each other, they learn to move more and more as one.
Communication then flows freely as riding becomes a dance of the heart.

I’m available in the Charleston area, and I regularly visit Aiken, Beaufort, and Columbia,
as well as Augusta & Savannah, GA and North Carolina.
