Finding Length Through Shortening

Listed by the publisher as “Feldenkrais lesson - Get Shorty! (Finding a natural sense of length) - By M’Lissa Hayes - Sitting”

This seated lesson explores the relationship between shortening and lengthening across different sides of the body. Participants observe their posture and consciously shorten distances between specific points—such as the chin and breastbone, or the shoulder and hip—to discover how the whole body adapts and finds new ways to lengthen.
