The Feldenkrais Method with Diane Gaary
Start Date: 2/4/2008Start Time: 5:00 PM
End Date: 2/4/2008End Time: 6:00 PM
Event Description
The Feldenkrais Method© was developed by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais to teach people to develop their potential emotional and physical selves.  We will be exploring arm and spine movements through The Awareness through Movement© sequences, which are gentle movements designed to reprogram the human nervous system to work more efficiently.  When presented with the variety of movement options available to play an instrument, you will learn about your movement preferences and your body will naturally begin to choose the easiest way to move.
Bring a blanket or yoga mat.
Diane Gaary has been an Alexander Technique teacher for twelve years and has a fascination with the connections between body use and vocal use.  She has an M.F.A. in Acting from the University of Virginia where she also studied speech pathology for two years.  She is a Feldenkrais Practitioner™ and is also certified as a Lessac Voice and Movement Instructor.  Diane has taught at Longwood College, Widener University, Beaver College, the University of Virginia, the University of Florida, and Westminster Choir College.  Diane has given workshops nationally and internationally, and is on the faculty of Temple University. She maintains private studios in both Philadelphia and Manhattan.
