Feldenkrais Children's Project Mostar, BiH

Sljedeći događaj

Uskoro ću biti u Mostaru (1.-5. septembra).
Ako mi neko može obezbijediti prostor za privatne časove, rado ću i ove godine ponovo raditi s djecom, roditeljima i terapeutima.

I will be in Mostar soon (September 1-5).
If someone can provide me with a space for private lessons, I would be happy to work with children, parents and therapists again this year.

Feldenkrais without Borders - Children's Project

  • The Feldenkrais Children’s Project Mostar started September 2023 with a lecture and introduction followed by two days of Feldenkrais Lessons for children with with developmental disabilities.
  • This event was made possible thanks to the generous support of Udruga za nedonoščad Mostar and its president.
  • This project is part of Feldenkrais without Borders, which is an international group of Feldenkrais and Anat Baniel Method for Children teachers committed to making the work of Dr. Feldenkrais accessible to as many children with disabilities as possible.

Why Mostar?

  • Brigitte – the initiator of this project – has a private relationship with Mostar which started in 2010. She is enthusiastic about the Feldenkrais® Method and wants to bring the work of Moshé Feldenkrais to as many children with disabilities as possible. Irrespective of race, religion, creed, financial situation or political affiliation, out of her feeling of civil responsibility and compassion.

Svjedočenje

"Nakon lekcije moja kćerka mnogo se više trudi, ne odustaje tako lako kao prije. Življa je i počela je da bude mnogo komunikativnija. Ona komentariše sve što radi, što takođe ranije nije radila.“

"Vor den Feldenkrais Lektionen machte mein Sohn kaum mehr Fortschritte und ich machte mir Sorgen deswegen. Nach nur drei Feldenkrais Lektionen machte er einen erstaunlichen Entwicklungsschub. Sogar die Logopädin war sehr beeindruckt."

"When we started Feldenkrais, my son (then 6 years old) had very severe spasticity. He was as stiff as a board and uncomfortable lying on his stomach. Now he is much more mobile, finds comfort in different positions, has more control over his head and intentions, i.e., purposeful movements are noticeable."
