I have long been intrigued by this subtle form of retraining the nervous system, which I currently recommend to patients whose movement has been restricted by injury, cerebral palsy, stroke, fibromyalgia, or chronic pain. I find it to be much more useful than standard physical therapy. I also believe that the Feldenkrais Method can help older people achieve greater range of motion, flexibility, and help us all feel more comfortable in our bodies.

Taught by Elizabeth Beringer, this audio series is oriented for those wishing to improve the functioning of their legs and specifically their knees and ankles. The series progresses through 8 half hour lessons each one taking a different focus. The themes include: distributing effort through the legs in order to reduce strain on particular joints improving the flexibility of the hips for healthier knees and ankles how overall posture affects the knees and how to reduce chronic tension that interferes with comfortable movement. The lessons in this series are basic and gentle and are especially appropriate for those recovering from an injury. No prior experience with the Feldenkrais Method is necessary.

Individual Sessions

The most direct way to benefit from Feldenkrais is to work privately with one of our highly skilled practitioners. In Functional Integration lessons, the work is tailored specifically to your needs, the touch is gentle and communicative, and your comfort is respected.  Call 212-727-1014 for an appointment.



As a career dancer and teacher, I am no longer feeling daily discomfort from the over-use of muscle groups, and I am more efficient with teaching movement. I truly believe that whatever you are pursuing in life, Feldenkrais can help you achieve your goal in a clear and gentle way.
- Lise Weber-Frutchey, Dancer and Choreographer
