Dr. Feldenkrais once stated that, he is the environment in which Functional Integration® lessons take place. From his years of Judo and questioning applications of quantum mechanics into physical movement he had refined his own abilities to support himself while giving his Functional Integration lessons into fine art. He famously said in the San Francisco Training that he could lift a person’s head without changing the tone in his arms. The degree he could sit and support himself efficiently, determined the degree in which his client experienced being supported thus being a part of an environment in which their habitual manner of maintaining their muscular habit was altered.
When I am in Australia we will examine the bio-mechanical principles that make it possible for us to lift a person’s head without changing the tone in our arms. We will learn how to organize our skeleton so we can cancel gravity, distribute force evenly and proportionally within our self as we give lessons and become more exquisite environments for our clients in the lessons we give.
Whilst this Advanced training will be offered within the context of the SEAUS 2 Training Program, Practitioners will work together and have an hour each day alone with Jeff who will answer your more advanced questions. This workshop will run for the first 5 days of the segment. In the second week, Practitioners may attend with either reviewer (full participation) or visitor (observer only) status. The reviewer rate is $440 and visitor rate is $60/day Contact Jenni to arrange. Early bird price until September 1st
Dr. Jeff Haller CFT PhD Seattle Washington USA
Profound events as a high school basketball player, as well as extraordinary synchronous events in life, have lead Jeff into a lifelong passion for personal self-emergence. As a high school basketball player, he profoundly experienced “The Zone” in several games he played in. In 1981, he received his first degree blackbelt, and began his doctoral internship program with the St. Joseph’s University Hawks basketball team in Philadelphia. He worked with the team teaching Aikido and Feldenkrais to improve movement and self-awareness skills of the players.
Jeff Haller studied directly with Dr Moshe Feldenkrais, the founder of the Feldenkrais Method®. In 1983, Jeff graduated from his own professional training program in Amherst, Massachusetts.
After graduation from his Feldenkrais training in 1983, Jeff named his business Inside Moves. Over the years, Inside Moves has gone through many different forms including as a movement arts center in Seattle, WA begun in 1984 to 1991 where classes in Feldenkrais, Aikido, Yoga, Tai Chi, meditation were offered.
From 1993 to the present day Jeff’s primary focus has been to train Feldenkrais Method teachers. In the following years, he developed and refined his skills, traveling and working in Feldenkrais training programs, while building an extensive private practice in his hometowns of Bend, Oregon and Seattle, Washington.
