CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS LOCATION Move Into Balance Feldenkrais® Studio 1335 Gusdorf Road, Suite J, Taos, New Mexico  (No Mail delivery) (Behind Health Clinic) 575-779-7169   MAILING ADDRESS PO Box 2714 Taos, NM 87571 “I always leave here with a feeling of hope.” ~ Robert   FULL DAY AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT® WORKSHOP In Studio, TAOS, NM SATURDAY, MARCH 15th, 2025 10:00am – 4:30pm (1 1/2 hour break for lunch) "I began to wonder, are the children jumping because they are happy or are they happy because they are jumping?" ~ Moti Nativ, Judo Master & Feldenkrais Practitioner ~ SPRING INTO ACTION ~ Jumping Higher, Landing Softer - A Lighter Step to Confidence 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. If you are able to stand and walk and are thinking to yourself “I can’t jump!” maybe a day of Awareness Through Movement to wake up your buttocks and remind you of the resilience built into the many shock absorbers of your body will change your mind? Or, at the very least, how you stand from a chair and get to wherever you are heading! Whether it be popping up from a chair, shooting a basket, skiing the moguls or more agility on the court, the day will bring some smiles and might just give you a little extra speed and/or time in the air. In other words, if you can stand and walk and would like to feel more energized to do your life, you are welcome to join us and I’d love to see you! In this Workshop we will: Find, strengthen and release, some of the strongest muscles in your body so they are available for active and powerful use. Reconnect with your feet and toes, they are much handier than you imagine! Refresh your memory of an internal rhythm, that however variable, is distinctly your own. Coordinate the relationship of your ankles, knees and hips to improve agility, comfort and assist in shock absorbency. Rediscover fluidity in your spine throughout all the lessons.

Monday Mornings 9:00-10:00AM 6 Monday Morning Classes ~ March 17th - April 21st, 2025 (Audio recordings available for missed classes) ~ SOFTER HANDS TO IMPROVE EASE AND ABILITY ~ “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ~ Lao Tzu Some say the tonus or tension of the hands is a reflection of the tonus throughout the body. The lessons in this series will be based around a specific subtle movement of the hand done in the background of other movements. Moshe Feldenkrais began teaching these lessons late in his life after decades of creating lessons and developing his Method. They are fascinating, and at times quite mysterious, in how they can profoundly influence our quality of movement and affect inner calm. In This Series We Will: Begin with specific gentle movements of the dominant hand, arm and shoulder to rest and recalibrate what we use consistently throughout all our waking hours. Continue by exploring and becoming familiar with a subtle movement of the hand Moshe Feldenkrais referred to as the "bell" hand. Learn to minimize effort of a steady, soft, repetitive hand motion which becomes the gauge for discovering a quality of effortlessness throughout the body and self in movement. Move us toward a less nervous, Nervous System. “Your grief for what you've lost lifts a mirror up to where you are bravely working. Expecting the worst, you look, and instead, here's the joyful face you've been wanting to see. Your hand opens and closes, and opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralyzed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings.” ~ Rumi, 13th Century Please contact Prisca for a detailed flier of current classes and Monday morning Zoom theme.

"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 ADVANCED TRAINING FOR FELDENKRAIS® PRACTITIONERS WORKSHOPS FOR A HEALTHY DANCEWORLD OTHER CLASSES & WORKSHOPS MOSHE FELDENKRAIS, D.Sc.
