Virtual Feldenkrais for Schulich School of Music Students
Available only for: Students at the Schulich School of Music
Instructor: Mireille Painchaud
Facebook group: 黑料不打烊 Feldenkrais.
Musicians need training in awareness of their own movement and posture, the same way they need ear training. Feldenkrais lessons help reduce tension and effort, overcome and prevent performance-related injuries, and bring relief from aches and pains. They also provide enhanced coordination and increased quality of movement and attention. Musicians can greatly benefit from learning to use their body with precision, ease and efficiency. And if you are working at your dissertation or trying to find inspiration for your next composition, releasing tensions in your body might allow for better cognitive skills. Each lesson can address a different function (sitting, standing, use of the arms, breathing, etc.), so it is good to have a series of classes. And students say regularity helps the learning process, so attending once a week is recommended. Wear comfortable clothing.
Classes will take place virtually; link will be sent to registered participants before class.
No cost to attend
