Listed by the publisher as “Free up the Hip Joints in Side Lying, Part 1 - A Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement Lesson (ATM)”

The lesson focuses on the relationship between the legs, pelvis, and rib cage while lying on the side. Participants explore small, precise movements of lengthening and shortening the leg from the heel, first in isolation and then coordinated with the arm and shoulder to observe how these actions affect spinal rotation and rib breathing.
