Rae Martin – new depths of discovery and learning
We are sad to note Rae’s passing and acknowledge her wonderful contribution to the Feldenkrais Community. We are leaving this article online as a tribute to her and her work.

Brad Thompson – Feldenkrais and martial arts: two sides of the same coin
Brad Thompson has spent much of his adult life consciously exploring movement, first through Chinese martial arts, then the Feldenkrais Method.

Louise Rothols – “I can’t perform miracles but sometimes miracles do happen”

The Practical Anatomy course that he co-teaches to voice students at Melbourne University includes 12 weeks of Awareness Through Movement (ATM) lessons. However, […]
Stephanie Spink – Wising up to pain
Stephanie Spink knows about pain – musculoskeletal pain, chronic pain, psychological pain – and the pain of letting go. Among those who refer to her busy Melbourne-based practice are GPs, neurologists, rheumatologists, and psychologists. “There is a much broader cross-section of the medical community that has started recognising the benefits of the Feldenkrais Method,” Stephanie […]
Zoran Kovich – Stepping Through the Dance of Life
“I decided to be a teacher when I was a teenager – that’s the common link to everything,” Zoran Kovich says. Zoran’s career has led him onto the stage as a dancer with the Australian Opera, into martial arts, through the study of cognitive science, the teaching of somatics and anatomy at universities, and into […]
