ABOUT MOSHE FELDENKRAIS, D.Sc.
Moshe Feldenkrais, D.Sc. (1904-1984) is internationally known as a physicist, engineer and educator. Founding the Judo Club of Paris, he earned a black belt at the age of 32 and is credited as the man who introduced Judo to the west. His extensive research of anatomy, physiology, psychology and neurology began when an old soccer injury became incapacitating. His success in learning to walk without pain and continue Judo late into his years led to a lifetime fascination of human movement and how it relates to behavior and learning.
Books by Dr. Feldenkrais include: Judo, Higher Judo, Body and Mature Behavior, Awareness Through Movement®, The Elusive Obvious, The Master Moves, Adventures in the Jungle of the Brain-The Case of Nora, and The Potent Self.
Books, tapes, videos and other materials available at Feldenkrais Resources, www.feldenkrais-resources.com or 800-765-1907.
"Very, very, very enlightening and clarifying ... my thinking was stimulated and I came away with a much better sense of functional anatomy, i.e. how the body is built to move and how certain misunderstandings of how the body works can lead to the training of a dancer that will be injured, frustrated or never fully expressive. Understanding how the bones are so beautifully put together gives me a greater understanding of how my thinking and misconceptions were affecting my movement. Being able to visualize how the spine can twist, turn, flex, and spiral helps me organize my thinking and therefore my movements more clearly. THANKS!" - Alice Brydges, CA
