Rolling to Sit with the Five Lines

Listed by the publisher as “Rolling to Sit - Advanced Feldenkrais Lesson”

This lesson guides participants through mapping five internal lines—the limbs and spine—as a framework for movement. By exploring ways to curl the head and knees while rolling, students investigate how the skeleton can leverage the floor to transition efficiently from lying on the back to sitting.
