“Shoulders and Hips” — somatic workshop for health and mobility with Paweł Wójtowicz in Warsaw

I invite you to a 2-day somatic workshop in Warsaw with Feldenkrais lessons. We will increase mobility and take care of our health and well-being ourselves. Most lessons will focus on mobility in the shoulders and hips. Classes take place in a warm, cozy studio in the city center.

HOW?

These are movement classes led by an instructor who describes positions and movement. Participants perform movements gently, at their own pace, without strain or pain, within their capabilities. We practice exploratively: looking for the easiest variants, taking breaks between movements to rest and process the experience.

Each class is a specific sequence of positions and movements leading to improved ability (e.g., standing up, reaching, turning, walking). The result can be increased range of motion, better posture, easier movement and breathing.

At the workshop we will do about eight such lessons; between them there will be breaks and time for comments, questions and answers.

• Saturday:
  Clock under the pelvis
  Sphinx
  Rolling around the shoulder
  Arm circles
• Sunday:
  Chanukija – why precision matters
  On walking part 1
  Active hand and passive head
  On walking part 2

• Relaxed muscles and relief – gentle movement without hurry.
• Rest – small movement and “clear mind”.
• Focus and calm – developing the ability to maintain attention.
• Better coordination and mobility – changing movement habits, increased body awareness.
• Pleasure – soft, unforced movement improves well-being.
• Developed learning and adaptation abilities.

FOR WHOM:
Somatics is for anyone who wants to move better, develop, or recover, regardless of age or fitness. Classes are also recommended for athletes, yogis, actors, dancers, physiotherapists and anyone who works with the body.
