I loved the lesson and learnt a lot. Feldenkrais was a genius indeed!!!! Thank you very much!! Mil gracias Profe!!
Thank you Stewart. You are a wealth of information!
Another great lesson. Thank you.
Thanks so much for this lesson. I really needed it, and I appreciated your explanations of some of the Feldenkrais principles. Very illuminating.
Genius and so effective .
bellissima lezione. grazie
Thank you again for these excellent lessons. Your explanations are very clear.
Thank you Marcanello. I hope you have a lovely Christmas 🌲
I thank for your explanations and movements. I am listening to you and trying to do your teachings. I am supported my daily health by your lessons.
Good morning Satsuko! It's lovely to hear from you. It's very cold here in the UK. I am teaching a Stick workshop here on Saturday - the last before the holidays. Am looking forward to having a few days free to devote to my own movement practice. Am so pleased that you are continuing to find the lessons useful
So relaxing, so deep, so good, thank you🙏💛
Thank you very much Elle for sharing. I am glad you enjoyed the lesson. Stewart
Wonderful! Body wanted to Explore side bending while lying as part of this. And the talking helped😀
This is the 2nd time I did this one and I got so much out of it Stewart. There's always more to learn. Thank you!
Hi Angie, I never get tired of repeating lessons because there is always something new to discover about the lesson and myself. You are very welcome.
brillant class! love your detailed anatomical info! thank you 🙏🌸
Thank you very much Eve!
Thank you so much!! ❤
Thanks again Astrid!
Excellent lesson. I am truly grateful for these lessons, which are very deep and clear. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you Marcanello. Have a lovely week. Stewart
Hi Stewart. I learned so much from the video...you have a great way of explaining things. And, the moves are very effective. Thank you so much!
You are very welcome Bianca, thank you so much for leaving your comment 😊
I feel that your explanations are an important part of "embodying" the movement, through the integration of cognitive understanding of what we are asking the body to do. Something "clicks" once you "get" it! Thank you once again, Stewart!! So grateful for your depth of understanding and your teaching style.
Thanks so much Sharon. It's lovely to hear from you 🙏
Thanks a lot for this lesson.
Thank you for the feedback Marc, I appreciate it
Lezione chiara con indicazioni utili e semplici.
Grazie
You are very welcome Luca and thank you!
Thank you. This was an excellent lesson.💕
You are very welcome Angie, thank you for posting.
Great class, Stewart, wow, it is just a total twist to see how wrong we get thought to to this, I ve always looked at the ceiling doing the abs. Your detailing is very felden!!!!
Thank you Lucy. Its amazing how our use of our eyes affects everything we do. Feldenkrais understood this and incorporated vision work into everything he did. I hope you are well. Stewart ;-)
First of all I'd like to say that I appreciate that you don't have advertisements interrupting your lessons.Thank you. And in this lesson, I particularly enjoyed the explanations of what is happening with the muscles and the body. I'm fascinated with Feldenkrais's approach to movement and the possibility of understanding how I can support freer movement through awareness.
Thank you Anne. I hate mid-roll ads too! It really is awareness that is the key to change. As Feldenkrais often said, when you know what you are doing, you can do what you want 😊🙏🏼
wow, what a wonderful lesson and so well explained. Thank you so much. My son is going to do this too to help him with his poor posture.
Hi did this help him with his posture?
great!thanks so much! andreá- Brasil
Graças à você Andrea😊
Another great lesson Stewart, thanks so much for sharing. When are you going to release a new video? Your lessons are the best. Despite being hyper-mobile, I'm still locked a bit around my ribs, but had so much general relief in back and rib area. I've had to change to a flatter pillow which means turning from my back to my side is easier (less pain in ribs). Thanks again.
Hi Georgia, thank you so much for the message. I have a few days free at the end of August and hope to get the new content up then. Thank you for your support 😊
Hi Stewart ...was searching for more examples of approaching the abdominals and found your excellent video. Will pass it to my theatre, dance and music students her at the arts school in Porto so they may follow you ...hope all is well xxx Claire Binyon (colleague from Lewes days)
Clare how lovely to hear from you. Thank you so much for the comments and for sharing. Stay safe and well in these crazy day xx
Early morning exercise I began with this today. Thank you for sending back to comments every time. I read your comment back to the newest one. Nothing is too late! This lesson, Fabulous Abdominal, as every time, your explanation is careful. I would understand what you say, now I play your video slowly, I am writing down, checking meanings, to understand better. Never boring in daily life!
Thank you again Satsuko. I am not sure if you will find this helpful but I also have courses on my website www.fitsitclasses.com. The Beginners Course on that website has 16 lessons and most of the video lessons in that course have PDF transcripts in English.
@@stewarthamblin Thank you for sending me an information. I opened it and read it. I need time to think about it.
First I would like to try all I can learn your lesson on You Tube . Your lesson is what I needed. I think many people need your lesson. I am not sure, how Japanese can know Feldenkrais lesson. A lot of people have many chances having exercises and popular. I have never ever heard about Feldenkrais here. Hope Feldenkrais lesson spread out. Thanks again.
Great thanks!!!
Top!
Thank you 😊
@@stewarthamblin so well explained!
Hi, thanks again! What other ATM or workout would you suggest after doing this séquence please?
Holy smokes !! I couldn’t help but laugh and it felt like I had soo much air in the back 😂😂
Awesome Benevolence!
Thanks for all the explanations. I do the bad stuff you just explained. Where I extend the neck back and it's so hard to get rid of this habit.
Me too Andrea. You should have seen me when I first started doing this work. The fact that you are aware of it now though is the key to change. Have a lovely weekend. Stewart
@@stewarthamblin Thanks, and thanks for all share. My hardest thing is to be aware when I do things I love that I'm passionate about, like singing or playing piano. It's hard to be aware when you get into something. Any advice for situations like that?? Thanks, God bless!
@@ImpulsoCreativo9322 Hi Andrea, it is hard to correct. For me, I remember taking something very 'simple' such as getting up and down from the floor or in and out of a chair and slowing it down to see if I could catch the moments when I was pulling my head forward. Then really pausing to check that I was breathing, backing off and trying again. I will try and cover this in a video.
@@stewarthamblin would love it if you did a video as such. Great advice. I will work on it. Time and patience!
One more question Stewart. . . I have anxiety and bad habits of always contracting the abs. If there is contraction work in this video, I shouldn't do it. Just wondering if there is "contracting abs" in this video?? I Need to work on postural strength/abs used in a functional way where they are lengthened and holding me up. Not contracting! Thanks.
😮BRILLIANT! Thank You!
Very Well Taught: Much Received!
🙌 ALL PRAISES TO THE MOST HIGH GOD OF ISRAEL!!
Hello there! Congratulations! This is yet another great class of yours! Might there be a class such as this one for the glutes too one day? That would be lovley ;-)
Thank you Martina, I will see what I can do for the glutes :-)
I'm looking forward to it ;-)
This is really good !!
Please make sure , you will do it in different languages , bcoz in our region , like India Bangladesh Pakistan, people aren't familiar with English language, please let me know if you need any , help regarding translation , I am ready to do it ,
Really appreciate the explanations, Stewart. What happened for me in doing the lesson was the opposite of what you suggested might happen, i.e. resting on my back after the lesson the space (arch) between my lower back and the ground was noticeably greater than it had been before the lesson. My back was almost flat to the ground at the beginning of the lesson and very arched at the end. Any ideas why that might be?
It's a little difficult to say without seeing you but I suspect your back muscles re-sent to a more neutral position. If you were very flat at the beginning it might be because you were already quite engaged in the abdominals meaning that your low back muscles were already lengthened. The different variations would have asked your abs to work a little more congruently - on and off - giving your low back muscles the opportunity to find their more neutral length. Quite a few people have a postural flat back (I tend to have a flatter curve in my thoracic area, others in the lumbar area). Quite often the curves will return after a lesson as the muscles begin to work together. It's one of the ways we work with a scoliosis. Rather than trying to 'fight' the scoliosis we go further into it, to take over the work of the system so that it begins to let go and then once that happens we begin to come away from it. I am not sure this is the answer but it's may be.
@@stewarthamblin Thanks for the ideas.
I am suffering from pelvic floor dysfunction due to my nervous system I believe. Can feldenkrais help me?
Hi, thanks for the message. There are lessons that work with the pelvic floor but I can't really answer the question without knowing more. My respectful suggestion would be to seek out a local teacher.
Hi Stewart I really enjoy your videos. A previous physical therapist of mine said my poor posture is causing dysfunction breathing patterns.
Do you have any videos in specific that help with alignment or does feldenkrais in general help with that?
Thank you
@@user-dg6zy3fs6c Feldenkrais for sure will help with that and I am also currently writing a book which should soon be going to print which may well help. Have you explored the videos on breathing: Unglue the lungs etc on my channel?
I do have other videos on flexors: how to strengthen your flexors, using a ball for your core, and rolling to relieve back pain if you haven't had an opportunity to see them. They will be listed under videos.
@@stewarthamblin thank you I have tried your video “Free the ribs free the breath” and I absolutely love it. My previous PT told me due to my body alignment my diaphragm doesn’t operate properly and therefore my system as a whole doesn’t breathe properly.
I have bad anterior pelvic tilt and I am looking to fix my alignment and poor breathing habits through regular feldenkrais practice (especially following your videos)
Thank you
