Bones for Life Teacher. Trainer/Organiser and Administrator for the very successful Wellington Feldenkrais Professional Training Program from 2007 to 2010. Twenty nine Students graduated in July 2010. Profile I am a senior Feldenkrais practitioner and my involvement in movement education spans more than 25 years. I have taught actors at Toi Whakaari, The New Zealand Drama School for 7 years and currently I am involved giving lessons to Music students at the School of Music at Victoria University. The New Zealand String Quartet has been seeking my expertise for many years, both in coming to my Awareness through Movement classes and receiving private Functional Integration lessons. Working with the NZSQ is one of the highlights of my professional life. For many years, I have contributed to the Yoga Teacher training program and have worked in the fields of sports rehabilitation, back education, biofeedback and studied the Alexander Technique. Practice I work full time with the Feldenkrais principles, teaching Awareness through Movement classes weekly, from beginners to the more advanced level. I give workshops in Wellington and throughout New Zealand. In my private clinic, people seek the Method to improve function after hip replacements, stroke, MS, OOS. For this, I get referrals from Physiotherapists,Osteopath and Doctors. I am inspired by the intelligence of the work, which can help anyone at any age to learn to function in a more fluid, less resistant manner.

I teach at the smaller room at this venue on a Tuesday after class and Wednesdays. Most people who seek my advice, are willing to participate in the re- learning of skills to improve their movement repertoire. The results are often associated with lessening of pain and discomfort , a greater ease in all everyday activities.
