Feldenkrais with Alfons - Getting Better Day by Day - the Workbook

Book excerpt: This one-of-a-kind workbook guides you through 9 amazing movement sequences, so called FELDENKRAIS(r) lessons. Every lesson is built on top of the other. With one lesson per day this results in a sophisticated, life changing 9 day program - a journey of learning and exploration. The very easy to read structure of this book helps you to get a quick overview over the lessons, a better understanding of the connections between lessons, and makes it easier to identify the strategies used in the lessons. Plus you'll have something to show to your people when you're trying to explain what you're doing. You can use this workbook to deepen your own practice and understanding, or use it as teaching tool to get others to roll on the floor and to learn more about themselves. I originally created the Getting Better Day By Day" lessons as a beginners video course for my YouTube channel with over 12,000 subscribers. In this workbook I try to use the same light, colloquial, humorous, yet sincere and authentic spirit I show in my videos. It is a thoroughly designed workbook and rides on the back of my professional education and my 10+ years teaching experience of the FELDENKRAIS(r) method with clients in person.
