Move With Elan
Comments from Our Students
..about Performance Enhancement and The Feldenkrais Method
"After my first Feldenkrais private session, I took 24 seconds off
my Borland hill (bike) climb in a single go. After my third session,
I took 18 minutes off my best half-marathon time. I came in strong,
with no injuries. People commented on how relaxed I seemed. I
thought I knew my body until I encountered Feldenkrais. The
Feldenkrais Method has now become an integral part of my
training regimen."

..about Pain Relief and The Feldenkrais Method
"The Feldenkrais work that I did with Karen taught me creative
approaches to movement that reduced my pain when I was doing normal activities
of daily living as well as when I was engaged in strenuous activity. I found
it incredibly helpful that, in the moment when I was doing an activity that
caused me tension or pain, my body could draw from an increased repertoire
of movement to reduce my discomfort. I credit this newfound ability to the
work that Karen did with me."

..about Stress and Tension Relief and The Feldenkrais Method
"One of the most incredible things about this method is that tremendous
results are felt from very small, subtle movements……I am releasing
life-long pockets of tension in my shoulders and jaw. I have greater
flexibility and balance. The Feldenkrais Method is a tremendous
health secret that could help many people relieve pain, enjoy greater
freedom of movement, and have greater energy [as I have]. I highly
recommend The Feldenkrais Method, Move with Elan, and
Nancy Agnew to anyone who wants to move from dis-ease to greater ease
in their body and in their life."

..about Posture and The Feldenkrais Method
"Recently I had a private session which produced remarkable results. I
noticed an immediate improvement in my posture. After just one session,
I stood truly erect--effortlessly--and I walked and moved with an ease
and natural grace that I haven't felt in countless years. Move with
Elan--what an appropriate name for a business that provides such results.
I'm grateful for the changes I have seen from this amazing technique.

..about Balance and Mobility and The Feldenkrais Method
"As a multiple hip replacement/resection patient, I have found
Feldenkrais to be helpful as a gentle way to reconnect with my
body after the surgeries, also in realignment and stretching back out....
I could see improvements in balance, gait, and general mobility...For
me, this is a kind of study of my physical self from the inside out.
I hope to continue with this inner exploration for a long time to
come."

..about Preparation for Childbirth and The Feldenkrais Method
"I think the [Awareness Through Movement] class was one
of the best things I did in preparation for the birth. And to tell you
the truth, I wasn't thinking much about postpartum recovery at the time
but it certainly is super helpful now... I would highly recommend the
class to ANYONE, but especially those about to have a child."

..about Karen and Nancy as teachers of The Feldenkrais Method
"For approximately two years, I have been participating in classes
conducted by Nancy Agnew and Karen Dold. Nancy and Karen are not only
expert in teaching the Method, but creative and supportive as well.
I would highly recommend working with them to anyone who wants to
learn to move more effortlessly and efficiently."
