If your question is not here, simply call me on +43 699 17050606<\/a>, or write to me via contact<\/a>.<\/p>\n No. I am a Feldenkrais practitioner<\/strong> \u2013 that is a profession of its own with a four-year training, not physiotherapy. I do not treat, I do not diagnose and I do not prescribe. The lessons are about learning: you find out how you move and what other possibilities you have.<\/p>\n No. The Feldenkrais Method is a way of learning<\/strong>. It does not replace medical examination, diagnosis or therapy. If you have complaints, please have them examined by a doctor \u2013 Feldenkrais can stand alongside that well, not in its place.<\/p>\n A group lesson<\/strong> (Awareness Through Movement) costs 15 euros per person. Within the running course, 8 lessons cost 80 euros. In Austria the Feldenkrais Method is not covered by the statutory health insurance. Some private supplementary insurers do contribute to such offers \u2013 it is best to ask them directly.<\/p>\n No, quite the opposite. The movements are small, slow and require little effort. You only do what comes without strain. People with little movement experience often have an advantage here, because there is nothing you have to be able to do.<\/p>\n No. Anything that hurts does not belong in a Feldenkrais lesson. One principle of the method is to stay within the pleasant range \u2013 learning happens through fine differences, not through stretching to the limit of pain.<\/p>\n Comfortable clothes you can move in easily, and warm socks. Mats and blankets are here. In an individual lesson you stay fully dressed.<\/p>\n In a group lesson<\/a> I guide the movements with my voice; that is a good and affordable way to start. An individual lesson<\/a> makes sense when there is a specific theme, when following along in a group is difficult for you, or when you would like to move forward more quickly. Many people combine both.<\/p>\n There is no general answer. Most people notice something after the very first lesson. For a habit to change, repetition is needed \u2013 which is why the weekly course is set up so that you can stay with it over several weeks.<\/p>\n Yes. Each lesson is complete in itself, so you can join at any time. You will find the current dates under dates<\/a>.<\/p>\n No. Yoga and Pilates work with postures and exercises that are meant to be performed as well as possible. In Feldenkrais there is no model and no correct execution \u2013 it is about noticing differences in what you yourself are doing. The lessons take place within the rooms of Matsya Yoga<\/a>, but they are an independent offer.<\/p>\n Many people come with tension in the back, shoulders or neck. In a lesson we do not work on the pain itself, but on the movement habit around it. Please have persistent or severe pain examined by a doctor beforehand.<\/p>\n In principle yes, the movements are gentle. Please speak briefly with your doctor or midwife beforehand and let me know when you register, then I will adapt the lesson.<\/p>\n From the first weeks of life until a child walks freely. The child comes to the lesson together with a care giver. You can read more on the Child’Space<\/a> page.<\/p>\n In English and in German. I come from the USA, so English lessons are no problem at any time \u2013 just let me know when you get in touch.<\/p>\nAre you a physiotherapist?<\/h3>\n
