Whether walking, running, swimming or changing positions in bed, the quality of how we move, from the full spectrum of feeling graceful to clumsy has little to do with our size, shape or symmetry, and everything to do with our self image, balance and coordination. The first time I saw a giraffe run I was 8 years old at the Albuquerque Zoo. I'll never forget the feeling I had - the animal mesmerized me with her beauty, appearing simultaneously awkward and graceful. Being an uncoordinated child, fortunate to be born into a home full of music and dance, I had a feeling of awe, an inner calm recognizing that beauty and grace are not reserved for a select few. Grace is available to all. While the structure of Awareness Through Movement always opens opportunity to experience moving, sensing, thinking and feeling, there are lessons that demand more thinking than others. They have a mysterious effect of interrupting inefficient muscular habits while we are busy with making sense of the movement suggestions. Approaching the lessons lightheartedly we can let go of frustration and perfectionism and improve our ability to think and move with less effort and more grace. They are a wonderful way to bring new timing and rhythm into life. In this Workshop we will: Balance your two sides through coordinated rhythmic movements. Be immersed in lessons that free your shoulders allowing more fluid motion and a happier body. Improve your ability to be present with your movement and concentrate with less effort! Experience how embodied grace goes beyond physical movement. "Do this movement slowly, without force, because it is impossible to change the world in an instant… to create is not possible in an instant." ~ Moshé Feldenkrais Cost: $110 ~ Early bird $95 paid by February 23rd (save $15) Please pre-register: priscawinslow@gmail.com ~ 575-779-7169 Students Share Their Experience: "...after doing Awareness Through Movement® I find I can Focus in my various areas without the stress or effort I used to make to Concentrate! Hurrah!" ~ Ann "This year has been so wonderful for my body and mind. I can feel the expanse and free movement. It is thrilling to move with grace." ~ Flynn "Prisca assumes everyone can do at least some part of the movement; she behaves as though anything is possible... Doing movements I didn’t think I could do rewired my thoughts, thoughts that were just not true. I could do this. I could do that. After all, here I was, doing it." ~ Carol WEEKLY AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT® CLASSES with Prisca Winslow  “Learning to inhibit unwanted contractions that function without, or in spite of, our will, is the main task in coordinated action.” ~ Moshé Feldenkrais IN STUDIO Wednesday Morning ONGOING OPEN CLASS 9:00-10:00AM MST Please contact Prisca to reserve your space ZOOM SERIES (Theme changes throughout the year.)

Drop-in by request.) “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ~ Lao Tzu ~ FREEDOM OF THE HEAD & NECK interspersed with JUMPING HIGHER, LANDING SOFTER lessons ~ Feeling ready to jump translates as a readiness for action. When that readiness is awakened, there is a noticeably lighter carriage and an awareness of the ground being useful rather than dangerous; skeletal balance reorganizes and the musculature becomes available for quick and powerful movement. In this extended series we continue to explore the carriage of the large weight on the top of the spine and body which houses the teleceptors and vestibular system, both of which depend upon and influence the balance of everything below. Although these two themes may seem unrelated, imagine for a moment jumping with a heavy head, not so easy! When approaching the idea of freeing the head and neck it is advantageous to investigate it's roots and our relationship to gravity by improving everything below! “I had a dental cleaning this afternoon. It was so much more comfortable turning my head in her direction and leaving it there.” ~ Heidi In This Series We Will: Use imagination to quiet the nervous system and explore the inner structure of the head itself. Engage in movements that clarify the relationship of the diaphragm and breathing to a common postural difficulty seen and experienced in our technological age ~ head forward. Experience how confident building it can be to more clearly sense the ground below with a free neck, allowing the teleceptors to function optimally in their roll of 360° awareness. Sprinkle throughout the series more playful active jumping lessons that engage larger movements and challenge balance to remind what really carries the heavy ball above. “It follows that any posture is acceptable in itself as long as it does not conflict with the law of nature, which is that the skeletal structure should counteract the pull of gravity, leaving the muscles free for movement.” ~ Moshé Feldenkrais Please contact Prisca for a detailed flier of current classes and Monday morning Zoom theme. Series Price: $12 per Class ~ Drop In rate $15 Currently All Classes $12 per Class Individual Functional Integration® by appointment. "My spine feels refreshed." ~ John   "A reunion and homecoming of who I've always been..."  ~ Gendron "Prisca's insights into... one’s use of one’s body have immediate and broader significance -- awareness of how one moves translates quickly into awareness of how one lives… Just as very small changes in one’s movements have dramatic impact on one’s well being, so do small changes in one’s way of thinking and acting have much larger impacts on the quality of one’s life..."  ~ Caroline		WELCOME 2025 ADVANCED TRAINING FOR FELDENKRAIS® PRACTITIONERS WORKSHOPS FOR A HEALTHY DANCEWORLD OTHER CLASSES & WORKSHOPS MOSHE FELDENKRAIS, D.Sc.
