Listed by the publisher as “Games of Counterbalance and Weightlessness - Introductory Feldenkrais® lesson with Sarah Baumert”

The instructor guides an exploration of coordination through gentle movements on the floor, using the imagery of a curious infant. Participants practice lifting their limbs and head with minimal effort, eventually transitioning into rolling movements that use the legs as a counterbalance to rise toward sitting.
