Intercultural Roots and Get Active Online!## https://ucdavisdss.zoom.us/j/8080804040" Zoom Pro Meeting ID: 808 080 4040 The Art of Moving Gently – The Feldenkrais Method®, Improvisation & Wellbeing with Thomas Kampe. In this class we will use The Feldenkrais Method® as a resource for improved wellbeing and creative movement improvisation, through gentle reflective movement explorations and expansive moves. We will access the fluid movement range and energetic potential of our core – pelvis, abdomen, ribs and spine - to enhance our creative choices as movers. For this lesson you will need access to a chair, or another comfortable surface to sit on – as we will work mainly in sitting and standing. The Feldenkrais Method offers an organic and accessible toolkit for learning through movement, fostering an improved felt sense of self. In imaginative and playful ways, it offers a relational perspective on movement, self-awareness and embodied wellbeing. Through empathetic and creative interaction with our lived world, the lessons enable us to gently discover new skills and tools for wellbeing with greater ease.
