Jon McNamara: Feldenkrais Series: Crafting a resonant space; movement, meaning and relatedness.

This course is designed as an immersive exploration of self, other and environment through movement.  Grounded in the Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education, the course will weave between structured Awareness Through Movement (ATM) lessons, semi-structured improvisation, and free movement.  Working with the constructs of attention, perception and  coherence, i hope to create a space for participants to explore the dynamic interplay of formative forces at play between self, other and the environment.
