The Journey Inward Feldenkrais®Workshop
Topic: More Balance: Working with Eyes and Rollers
These 13 Awareness Through Movement® lessons were taught live in a 4-day workshop entitled More Balance: Working with Eyes and Rollers taught by Diana Razumny in Santa Fe NM in June of 2018.
This series of lessons (and the discourse not recorded) explored how our vestibular system, vision and proprioception are intimately interconnected and contribute to our ability to move with more ease and grace. The use of the eyes and rollers were incorporated into the Awareness Through Movement® lessons to amplify the impact on balance. Sizes of the 6 rollers that were used: 3 three-foot long rollers- diameters of 6 & 4 inches. One 6” was a full circle, one sliced in half length-wise. And then the same with 3 one-foot long rollers. If you are interested in this series and you don’t want to buy all 6 rollers, it is possible to adapt by only having the 3 three-foot long. If you are a Feldenkrais Practitioner, you will find these lessons very applicable for using in Functional Integration lessons.
