Lovely to hear from you! ❤️ I‘m very happy about your progress and commitment to practice!

I repeat this lesson every few months. Each time I discover more ease and a better sense of getting different body parts connected. Thank you for demonstrating how to get the right arm higher - I could move my right arm and left leg separately, and that got me curious how to connect them, so I explored a bit and found some of that diagonal pathway. The right shoulder is now organized better with my ribs. I imagine someday that pathway all the way to the opposite hip will become clear as well. What an interesting exploration!

You are absolute the best of the best Alfons.

You are a genius- I'm a black belt in karate, but I had a stroke , then diagnosed with stenosis of the spine and was walking with a cane then a limp+ was prescribed all kinds of muscle relaxers and then God led me to your knee exercise video and your other videos . I'm happy to say the limp is almost gone after just 2 days of diligent practice . God bless you.

For many, many years I must have been expending a lot energy and burning calories just getting up from the floor. With the help of your excellent instruction and the resulting coordination the movement was totally effortless. Nice, but after enjoying this new ease I will soon need to discover what else to do with it. Your patience in instruction is once again appreciated. Thank you, Alfons.

You are such a wonderful teacher, Alfons. I enjoyed doing this video and feel softer inside myself afterwards. I really appreciate your way of generously sharing your skillful talent. Blessings!

Dear Liza, glad to receive your message :-) Good to know that my videos are useful in Hungary. However, I believe the words are crucially important. I created the videos to make it easier for people to find my work, and to practice at home alone. To translate words into movement is an internal process, something wonderful, and at the core of this method. I don't know if copying from visuals actually has the same benefits at all.

amazing, great video, thanks for so many insight

This is just what I needed....thank you! :)

I can't agree that it stops being a learning experience if you show how a movement is accomplished. What's gained if it's not understood? I personally think that that idea is used counter-productively by lots of Feldenkrais practitioners. It is a much more effective learning experience to be given the key and then being able to use it (often with delight), and to see how it unlocks other movements that may not have been really understood before either. Thank you!

Thanks a lot for all you give us!!

I love your videos !! Concise, just the right amount of detail.😄❤

Thanks again Alfons...really nice lesson. I've heard a saying that 'where the mind goes, the body follows', and many different versions of this too....often related to martial arts.

Hello Alfons, Thank you for all your videos, I have been benefitting from these exercises. I am curious to know if you are familiar with a structural condition called Femoral Retroversion? Thank you.

Hi Alfons, I follow your videos closely and have done Feldenkrais for decades, off and on. It always saves me from pain, so far mostly back pain. There's a tool for getting funded, just go to patreon.com. Your followers can then sponsor you, pledging small amounts every time you post a video. It has been working well for some other people I follow. As for Noguchi San, I also enjoy his videos, but then there is the languires barrier. One of the most interesting is the fist rolling in different positions, hard to do at home because it has no sound I. English, French, or other western language. I hope you do that lesson some time.

I don't think such a "condition" can be fixed without a plant based diet (no processed foods, no plant oils - no oil, not even olive oil). Honestly, a plant based diet will heal you inside out and remove most of your ailments. But I understand that it's very difficult to transition to such a healthy lifestyle without proper information. May I recommend this lecture for a start: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZoyKyJVvntrYkdo.html (there are hundreds of lectures like this on KZread by e.g. Dr. McDougall, Dr. Greger, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Colin Campbell, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Jeff Novick etc etc etc).

Love this video! You love what you do and that is infectious! So, you are bringing the viewers attention to the cause and effect relationship in the learning process? So useful for developing ourselves and being ready with gravity. last night at the aikido practice, my teacher taught me... I was under the impression that I could do an adequate and improving supported fall, but...the half crippled old man who is my teacher moves very softly and without force but some crazy integrated power and it was difficult to "receive". I fell badly, wasn't able to protect the back of my head :-( What was interesting to me is that when I got up from that I didn't internally freak out, I chose to visualise the cohesive, relatable, whole body direction away from what you refer to here as fear contraction, and FMA refers to "shortening the stature" and now my neck isn't felling injured. Macro learning and micro learning with whole body movement is so useful/integral to martial practice.

This was a lot of fun and I hope to figure out how to get up from the floor like you did at the beginning of the lesson. I was able to find the rolling movement while reaching with the hand on the right side, but am having trouble on the left. My left side is the trouble one with the glutes, hip, etc. and I suspect this is an important piece of the puzzle for me to restore function on that side. Is there another lesson that might help me with finding this movement, or should i just keep doing it on the right side and trying to figure it out by paying close attention to what i'm doing on that side? It's really amazing how different the two sides are in this lesson, but it's okay with the leg on both sides. Thank you!!

All links are in the description

answer to E White by Tania, Feldenkrais practitioner: You are right, it doesn't stop being A learning experience if a movement is shown, one can then play around with it and make it one's own. So, yes, it can then become a learning experience just as many other experiences in life can be learning experiences. BUT the learning experience that the Feldenkrais method deals with is the one taking place WHILE EXPLORING. It's NOT THE PROPOSED MOVEMENT IN ITSELF THAT COUNTS (in the F. Method), it's WHAT HAPPENS IN YOUR WHOLE SYSTEM (NEUROMUSCULAR, EMOTIONAL...) WHILE YOU'RE DOING IT THAT COUNTS. The movements themselves, those done in a lesson are a MEANS, not a goal. THEN, once one has explored enough without model, then it can sometimes be OK to watch someone else because at that point, one has one's own reference to compare with. And THEN, of course, one's everyday movements and gestures can get better from the experience of different lessons. But you are right, this idea is often misunderstood (including sometimes amongst certified practitioners).

Hi Ana, thank you for your feedback. I usually try to talk first, and then chime in with the movements - it's an important part of this method (part of the pedagogy) that students find the movements within themselves, rather than copying from a visual. In my videos it happens quite a bit that this process is not very clear or gets mixed up… too many things to watch at once (audio recording, is camera in focus, filming angle, lighting + outside noises, getting the movement sequence in the right order, my verbal phrasing and articulation, pacing, pauses, my own movements...)

@ThePrincesafania

Thank you. I understand how the method works. I don't mean doing the movement before explaining it. I meant the times you interrumpt yourself while thinking out loud that stops the continuity of the movement in the midddle of the explanation.

Hallo Alfons, ich mache gerne Feldenkrais mit Dir. Ich bin Anfängerin und da fängt das Problem an. Für mich ist es sehr schwierig, konzentriert und mental in meinem Körper zu bleiben, wenn plötzlich, mitten in der Übung, Du diese abbrichtst - ich stehe noch im Vierfüßler-Stand - und ich soll mir ein Video anschauen, von einer sicher begnadeten Frau, doch für mich ist das überhaupt nicht hilfreich. Ich werde aus meinem Körper in meinen Verstand geholt um dann Sekunden später, mich wieder in meinen Körper zu begeben. Ich finde die Videos, in denen Du konzentriert die Übungen mit uns durchgehst soviel hilfreicher, nur leider weiß ich nicht, in welchen Videos Du plötzlich von einer Idee überfallen wirst, diese dann erklären musst, während man selber auf die nächste Anleitung wartet. Das ist für mich sehr anstrengend und es ist schade, da Deine Anleitungen so hilfreich sind.
