2016 Trainee Volunteers of the Year
Honoring practitioners who have reached the goal of moving into the tenth decade of life is a pleasure. These people continue to be part of the history of the Feldenkrais Method®, working in their practices without recognition, sharing their passion for the lessons with the students who seek the possibilities offered in our work.
