Power of the Pelvis
6 Week Feldenkrais Series
The Pelvis is your Power Center.
In this series we will improve the mobility of your pelvis, which can significantly improve back pain, strength, strain from sitting and overall well-being.
In my Feldenkrais training we had a running joke whenever someone had an inquiry— there are always two answers to every question: "it depends," and "the pelvis." Do you get it? The pelvis is very often THE answer.
Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® aligns with current brain science showing that there is infinite potential for neural growth and change. Awareness Through Movement helps to create new and stronger neural pathways which support your brain in making better choices.
Practice Ease
The brain learns what is practiced. In Feldenkrais we practice orienting towards pleasant, easy sensations and movements, that lead to an increase in clarity, relaxation, choice, pleasure and calm. The increase of embodied awareness supports nervous system regulation.
Every week we interrupt habitual patterns of tension, over-efforting and exhaustive ambition
We trade them in for new habits of ease, efficiency, deep listening and empowerment
What’s a class like?
Each lesson will begin with a brief group check-in, followed by a 45-50 minute guided Awareness Through Movement® Lesson. At the end of class there is space to share reflections and ask questions.
We will explore movements of the pelvis and whole self in a variety of positions, on the back, belly and the side. Each lesson is distinct and supports a comprehensive understanding of the movements of the pelvis.

What people are saying about Feldenkrais with Michelle Huber:
“I'm always so amazed at how differently I feel at the end of the lesson from such subtle movements. At the beginning of this lesson I could barely move my neck and at the end it was so easy!" - Katie B.
“my right shoulder feels so much better and it’s been a near constant pain for over a month now.” - Elena Karlsen-Ayala
“Michelle's teaching style is, for me, a perfect balance of gentle honoring of the body as it is now, and direct leading of the body to where it can eventually go.” - Ash Martin
About Feldenkrais:
Feldenkrais is an embodied learning practice of slowing down and experiencing how you move. In a lesson we combine our own curiosity and awareness with Moshe Feldenkrais’ profound knowledge of coordination, efficient movement and developmental movement patterns.
We practice decreasing doing and increasing awareness, which has positive benefits of decreased pain and increased choice, which ripples out into your life.
Movement is the language of the nervous system. We improve our movements with attention, which improves the overall functioning of the nervous system.
Through the practice we tap into the neuroplastic quality of the brain to infinitely improve. Each lesson is designed to help the nervous system learn.
The practice unleashes human potential through a gentle unwinding of holding patterns.
In many mindfulness practices we use the mind to improve the body, in Feldenkrais we use movement to improve the mind. It feels like magic, and it’s scientific!
