Restorative Rhythms: Pelvic Rocking through the Ankles

Listed by the publisher as “Restorative Rhythms - the first lesson in a series of 9 Feldenkrais lessons with David Zemach-Bersin”

The instructor guides an exploration of rhythmic rocking and pulsing movements generated through the ankles and feet. Participants lie on their backs and use small, repetitive flexions of the feet to transmit motion through the skeleton to the pelvis and head. The lesson emphasizes reducing effort and maintaining easy breathing to allow vibrations to travel freely.
