Move Along - The Feldenkrais Method - Avigail Sfez

19/09/2026

This week, I thought I wouldn’t find a common thread between my classes.

In one, I taught leg swings forward and back while lying on the side; in the second, lying on the belly, flexing the knee toward the body and rolling from right to left; and in the third, on the back, exploring the connection from a standing foot to a crossed arm traveling across the chest - extending long along the floor to the side.

But then - nothing but surprises!

The first reminded me of the movement "Grand Battement En Cloche" - "cloche" meaning bell in French - and this image of a grand, resonant movement echoing through the whole body was present throughout the class.

In the second class, one of the students suddenly spoke up mid-movement (not a common occurrence in a Feldenkrais class): "I feel something strange." I was curious, and she continued: "It feels like church bells, I have this kind of resonance in my body, something vibrating."

In the third, a bell didn’t appear, but at the end, one of the students said he felt I was missing an image, and suggested thinking about how a grogger (Purim noisemaker) is used - yet another version of a sound-making instrument and a cultural-religious icon.

In short - it was a week filled with chimes and rattles, and I’m looking forward to next week :)

Are you looking for a beautiful space to run your practice?

I’m part of a small group of Feldenkrais practitioners currently setting up a new space right in the center of Copenhagen, just a 2-minute walk from Kongens Nytorv.

It’s a lovely, bright, and quiet space. The room features a private entrance and a spacious balcony, and since there are two rooms and we will mostly be using one, the second room is available for regular subletting (one to 4 days a week).

It’s an ideal fit for psychologists, somatic practitioners, bodyworkers, and holistic health therapists looking for a welcoming home for their clients.

Rate: 2,000 DKK / month for 1 fixed full day per week (all-inclusive).

Flexibility: If you need 2 to 4 days, we are very open to finding a setup and a special rate that works for both of us.

Because everything is just starting out, this could be a really sweet match if you are in the early stages of your practice, or simply looking for a wonderful, inspiring place to base yourself for the coming year.

If you’re interested, or know someone who might be, send me a message to 71694245 (Avigail).

What stayed with me from the group classes I taught this week:

Standing firmly on one leg. Where does this ability come from, and what makes it possible?

How much the pelvis can move over the standing leg - within a range that doesn’t create an impossible situation - so that the standing leg can continue to fulfill its role.

In two very different classes - one on the side, where we looked for our toes with our eyes and then our heels, and the other lying on the belly, on the back, and standing, where we sent a bowling ball off into infinity and beyond - we explored this asymmetrical state.

What would it feel like to throw a bowling ball on the side you’re not used to?

This week, from the classes I taught:

The connection between one hand and the other takes shape. An abstract, easily identifiable pathway also becomes clear between shoulder and shoulder. Through the imagery and movement of:

A heavy iron ball between the forearm bones, between the two heads of the biceps muscle, into an imaginary hollow between the collarbone and the chest, somehow passing through the sternum and onwards in a symmetrical, mirrored way to the other arm (hollow, biceps, between the forearm bones).

If there is such a clear connection linking one hand to the other - how does it manifest during a push? When one hand is active, versus when both are working together?

When you push - do you lengthen or shorten?

I’m going to start sharing small moments and insights from my weekly classes.

📿😊

This past week, we explored this instruction by Moshe Feldenkrais: "Arrange the face so it’s ready to smile."

We wove this together with the image of an imaginary ribbon tied around different places—the knee, the elbow, the head, the pelvis - gently turning around them.

What happens when you combine these two ideas together?

כמה מחמם את הלב לפגוש אתכם אונליין בשיעור. את חלקכם אני מכירה מאז שהתחלתי ללמד שיעורים קבוצתיים ב 2017 - אצלי בסלון ואז במתנ״ס. אני מחכה לשיעורים יחד, ושמחה לאתגר אתכם בעוד ועוד שיעורים מפתיעים מהאוצר האינסופי של שיטת פלדנקרייז.

אני מזמינה אתכם להצטרף ללמידה שלנו בתנועה. בהקשבה, ברוח טובה, עם המון סקרנות והתייחסות למה שנכון לכם - בשיעור הזה, כאן ועכשיו, היום.

אני מלמדת שתי קבוצות אונליין:
שלישי ב 18:00 / שישי ב 10:30

כמו כן, טוב להכיר ולדעת שאני מלמדת שיעורים פרטיים עם יחס אישי מאוד. זה מתאים למי שרוצה להתמקד בשאלה שיש לו, או למי שמשתקם מפציעה וקבוצה אולי לא מדוייקת לו כרגע, וגם לביישנים.
זה יכול להיות גם בפורמט קצת שונה - כמו חבר וחברה או אמא ובת :)

רוצים להצטרף, מתעניינים, רוצים לשאול?
