Feldenkrais Method® for Athletes

With the Feldenkrais Method® you can improve your sports performance through greater self awareness, ease and efficiency of movement.

Through the understanding of the connection between the nervous system and functional biomechanics the Feldenkrais Method facilitates new self awareness of old habitual unconscious movement patterns.

"The aim is a person that is organized to move with minimum effort and maximum efficiency, not through muscular strength, but through increased consciousness of how movement works."

Moshe Feldenkrais

The Feldenkrais Method has been used by athletes to enhance performance by focusing on refining movement patterns, increasing body awareness, and promoting efficient biomechanics. Athletes may find benefits such as improved coordination, flexibility, and balance through regular practice.

By exploring and optimizing the quality of movement, athletes may experience reduced tension, increased range of motion, and a heightened sense of body awareness. This can contribute to improved overall performance and potentially reduce the risk of injuries.

While some athletes incorporate Feldenkrais into their training routines, it's essential to recognize that individual responses may vary. Athletes interested in exploring this method may find it beneficial to consult with a certified Feldenkrais practitioner who can tailor sessions to their specific needs and goals.
