- This is the 8th lesson in the Happy Hips, Knees and Feet series. It has some fabulous variations to help improve the flexibility of the chest.
The lesson is based upon AY 471 'Continuation holding the knee'.

Boy lessons 7 and 8 had delicious movements. Once I was able to give me weight to the ground through my organs the differentiation in the movements provided a profound release. I just wanted to stay on the floor and not get up . Ha! Hope that I can integrate this movement of the ribs into every day life. Thanks for the content, it’s perfect for this aging body
Thanks so much Russell 🙏🏼
I'm really enjoying a new awareness of the parts of my body and how they move in relation to each other. This lesson was particularly interesting.. And thanks for the clear and slow development of the exercises.
Thanks so much Anne, that's really kind of you.
Hi Stewart, I found this lesson quite challenging and another great one for my ribs. I couldn’t quite get the connection to lift my head but maybe next time. 🙏
Have Been doing your exercises for five weeks now and enjoying it I do different exercises daily just to keep it exciting yesterday I did your yoga class that was good too are usually do a different kind of yoga so yours was interesting thank you for that from Canada
Thanks so much Dianne. I am a big fan of variety to keep things interesting. I haven't been in a long time but Canada is one of my favourite places. Have been to Ottawa, Toronto, Quebec city: so much more to see. Stay safe.
Muy interesante tu propuesta.
Me gustaría si podrías traducir..para aprovechar más lo que propones.
Gracias
Gracias Karina. Me gustaría traducir todas las lecciones pero la verdad es que no tengo tiempo de momento. Lo siento mucho. Stewart
Thankyou Stewart. I love doing your classes when I have time, they make me looser and freer of pain. Christmas Day today, I had time.
Thanks so much Peter. Happy Christmas to you and your family.
That was an astonishing lesson. OMG.
Thank you Dean, it's a great lesson and I am so glad you enjoyed it 😊
Big difference in my ribs. I feel so open. Thank you Stewart.
Its a powerful lesson Angie. Have you tried the Cracker?
Loved this lesson Stewart. Definitely a repeater
AMAZING! I loved how much stretch you could wring out of the body with this one. Glorious.
Fun isn't it Shyama. So glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing your class, I learn a lot from your teachings. A wealth of possibilities for the health of our body! I am very grateful!
Thank you Sumaia, it's very kind of you to write.
Gauuuu que clase sofisticada!!!!me encanto el desfio que propone ! Y senti mi cuerpo muy disponible despues de hacerla!!!Gracias 🙏
Gracias a ti Cecilia!
Yes! It was really a difference in the back, with the contact of the floor from the start compared to the end. It’s a Nice feeling to really feel completely grounded with the back.😊
Thank you, Stewart. Great lesson for my back
Great lesson Stewart, but wow, when interlacing fingers and trying to extend my hands/arms above my head, I realise just how tight and sore my shoulders and neck are. Also loved how your chair lesson to free the spine released my whole rib area which, despite being hyper-mobile is usually tight and a bit sore.
Thank you so much Georgia. I am teaching a lesson this week for the shoulders. I hope to get the video up by the end of the week.
Wonderful class. Rare lucidity of teaching. A whole new level for me. Thank you!!
Wonderful lesson for the chest
Many thanks, Stewart.
Está y otras lecciones dentro de está serie, parecen ayudar con la escoliosis, cierto, o es mí imaginación?.✌️
Eso no me sorprende en absoluto Luyz.😊
Good morning. I did this the first time a month ago and two times in these days. I feel the right side of pelvis is more heavier the the other. Feldenkrais is my daily gladness. I listened to your “ Why I love Feldenkrais “ many times and wrote down. I ask myself what ‘reprogramming’ means. I keep doing and thinking of your lessons in this summer.
Good morning Satsuko, its lovely to hear from you as ever. Its so interesting to make these discoveries. Have a lovely day!
It took much time to come back to no. 8 because I needed repetitions, parts and basics. I really hope I am following lessons as you teach us. It’s not easy to learn only by TH-cam lesson for me, still much joy and curious. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this series, and paying (more) attention to the pubic bone does make a big difference! :)
Thank you very much for taking the time to comment. It's been a wonderful series to teach.
Beautiful and great lesson, I would like if is not a bother to have this lesson wroten is it possible? Cause I would like to translate it! If Yes I will live my mail. Thank You
Hi Pen, thanks for the message. I don't have a transcript of the lesson yet.
Thank you, my hips and shoulders feel lighter...
Thank you Fulya 😊
Hi Stewart, just did this lesson again after a month. So ingenious, these movements! A question: at the end (39:47), when you have your legs long and are turning to one side and then to the other - it looks like you are initiating the movement from the upper body. Would it affect the purpose of the lesson if the movement were initiated from the hips? More generally, in Feldenkrais lessons (and in life), I am sometimes unsure which part of the body should lead a movement and how isolated the movement should be. It seems like (almost) everything is possible, so what is optimal or natural?
Hi Bea, you are right about the video at that point. There is was trying to initiate the movement from the upper body to work on thoracic rotation. Certainly, try it from the hips and see if you can sense the difference. Generally speaking its good to initiate from the pelvis core but it depends on what the intention is. Its good to have all the options.
@@stewarthamblin Thanks, Stewart, appreciate your response. Thanks for all the excellent videos. They are really helpful. I have been forwarding the link to your channel to many people!
Hello, Stewart. Can this lesson done on its own?.✌️
Hi Luyz, yes it can.
So today’s revelation. Something deep under my right shoulder blade was released and went immediately hot. Whatever that was had been irritating me and causing clicks and pops in the shoulder blade that side for years. Thankyou.
How wonderful Steve, thank you for sharing!
Feldenkrais Moments with Stewart Hamblin the key movement was using the leg to drag on the shoulder while twisted. Great stuff.
Absolutely Delicioso. Mis chakras explotaron.
Que bueno! Muchísimas gracias por el comentario 😎
