Description

Many people think of Awareness Through Movement as a moving meditation.  While this is accurate in colloquial/loose terminology, there are important differences between the two.  This seminar will explore “Embodied Meditation” and its relationship to ATM.  The Feldenkrais Method® has much to offer meditation practitioners in terms of comfort in sitting and as well as organizing the attention AND there is an approach to meditation that deepens our understanding of our method.  This seminar is for meditators, those wanting to learn to meditate and those who would like to work effectively with people who meditate.  Awareness Through Movement lessons, meditation and discussion will be our main practices.  Chairs will be available.
