Move Beyond Limits

Parkinson's Disease Symptoms and Feldenkrais®

A chance to improve how you move ...

The Feldenkrais Method® can make a huge difference in balance, helping you feel more secure on your feet and prevent falls. Each session will leave you feeling a little looser and more mobile. You'll reduce the effort required for activities like sitting and walking, leaving you with more energy to continue to do your favorite activities.
You can improve your independence by improving your balance, and learning ways to more easily turn over in bed, get in and out of the car, put on shoes, overcome freezing, or use a walker safely. Feldenkrais can help you preserve your relationships by helping you maintain mobility in your face and speech volume and clarity.

Because you'll see progress in each lesson, it can also help counteract the depression that can come with a chronic illness. As your body develops more movement choices, your emotions open up as well.

We offer weekly drop-in classes focused on balance for people with Parkinson's . We can also work with you in 1-1 sessions on specific requests. We also offer private sessions by video-conferencing for people who live outside the Seattle area.

We encourage you to come in, share with us what you love to do, and let us work with you to find ways for you to do those things with more comfort and ease.
