Christchurch Summer Classes 2021

January 20th  – March 12th – 8 weeks

Kia ora tatou,

Warmest wishes to you all.  I hope you have all found some space to relax and enjoy the holiday break.

For these summer classes I am offering a series of Moshe Feldenkrais’ (our founder) core lessons. In these classic lessons you will find some new movements, and also one or two of your old favourites, that will nourish wellbeing and wholeness. Collectively, these lessons will help us discover  how gentle, subtle movements can help us to move past physical and emotional blocks to offer better options for greater ease, flexibility, and wellbeing.

I am endeavouring to keep classes small and to provide for space between us on the floor.  Please note that Friday’s class will now be taking place at the Heathcote community centre, which is a little more spacious.

Classes are as follows, and are suitable for all levels.

  • Wednesday morning 10am – 11.15am:  20th Jan – 10th March (8 weeks)  at The Zendo Hillsborough.
  • Thursday evening 6pm – 7.15pm:  21st Jan – 11th March (8 weeks) at The Tara Centre, Waltham.
  • Friday morning 11am – 12.15 pm:  22nd Jan – 12th March (8weeks) at the Heathcote Community Centre , Heathcote.

Coming up after Easter

  • Summer Evening Walking programme 7- 8.30 pm – Daily 5th – 9th April

This block of lessons will help remind us how walking can simply connect and ground us back to nature, bringing  us home to our own natural rhythms and inner vitality.

COVID-19

We will continue with the same Covid-19 precautions as we did at that end of last year. Please sign in and sanitize your hands as you enter. You are welcome to bring a mask or scarf to wear inside. Please bring a pillow case to place on your mat and your own water bottle. If you have any flu or cold symptoms, please stay at home.
