CURRENT CLASSES:
I deliver monthly day long classes at the beautiful Knowle Grange Spa in Tunbridge Wells. For details of forthcoming events please contact me: mark@theskeletonkey.co.uk
These lessons usually take place on the floor, or sometimes sitting on a chair if the floor is difficult to reach for you. I will guide you through a sequence of movements that address a particular function or area of discomfort. Each new movement is repeated, explored and developed and this creates useful alternatives to habitual movement patterns. By engaging your curiosity, and encouraging you to question at your own rate, you learn to explore the world of your internal sensation as well as your relationship with the environment. You learn to use this awareness to release chronic patterns of tension and create new movement possibilities, which make you freer and the world more accessible. Results are immediate and profound, and do not need to be repeated unless deeper exploration is sought. There are thousands of Awareness Through Movement lessons, each deceptively simple, and each addressing a different function. They usually last between 45 minutes and an hour. All you need to bring is comfortable clothing and a rug to lie on. See a lesson in progress here.
FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION LESSON FI
I currently give
Functional Integration lessons from my clinic in
Wrotham, near Sevenoaks, Kent.
In these one- to- one hands on lessons I guide and support you focussing on your personal requirements. Each lesson revolves
around a question: how do your habits of movement stand in the way of your self fulfillment? In a
typical lesson you and your teacher discuss this and you then lie
fully-clothed on a low table. The teacher's hands gently support and guide while
suggesting and encouraging you towards new possibilities of
movement and organisation. Each lesson is unique and designed to address your
particular habits and issues. Your increased
self-awareness will enable you to replace limiting habits with new efficient funtional skills . You will find parallel development in
the flexibility of your thinking and feeling. You will be given suggestions on ways to explore independently. Lessons are particularly useful for specific or
long-standing problems, to deepen your experience of Awareness Through Movement classes,
or to provide ongoing support for your everyday life. A lesson usually last around 45
minutes to an hour, but can be longer depending on the individual need.
I am able to provide domiciliary visits for clients with travel
difficulties. For prices click prices and payment

Feldenkrais as a method is still growing in popularity and because there are only a few dedicated practitioners currently practising in the U.K. classes are quite rare. A good way to get one going is to do it yourself with my help! If you, your club or your organisation are interested in setting up a class or a taster please contact me and, provided there is a minimum of 5 people, I will make the necessary arrangements.
I can also bespoke hour long, day long and weekend workshops to cater for:
* STAFF HEALTH AND SKILLS EFFICIENCY
* CONTINUED PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
* CLUB SPECIALISM (WHETHER SPORT, CREATIVE, OR ARTISAN)
TO SEE WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT ME FOR A CHAT, OR EMAIL ME FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
