Liz has over ten years experience with the Feldenkrias MethodÒ graduating in 2001 as well as tertiary qualification and experience working in Community and Human Services. She is a Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner and an active member of the Australian Feldenkrias Guild Inc.

Liz found the Feldenkrais Method following the decline of her movement and years of pain as a result of sport injuries, surgery and health issues.  In her first exposure to the Feldenkrais Method Liz was hooked by the instant possibilities - to move where she had not been able to move for years, to sense parts of herself she had not known were missing, and to think that doing less was ok.

Since then, Liz has assisted people to awaken the possibilities in themselves in order to better manage their life, limitations and/or pain. Where people have found little success using other modalities, they have found benefits from the Feldenkrais Method. Some people need only one or a few sessions, while others undertake regular sessions.

Liz has worked with people with chronic pain, chronic fatigue, back pain, leg injuries, elderly people with degenerative spines, people with workplace pain and discomfort, women during pregnancy, limitations with and management of movement in Parkinsons Disease, children with cerebral palsy, and people with mental health issues such as phobias, bipolar, and other disorders. Liz sees that as movement is integral to all humans, there are no boundaries for how the Feldenkrais Method might be used.

With life interests ranging from how things work, information technology and extreme sports, to hand crafts, home renovation, workplace ergonomics and aging well, Liz uses her wide range of experiences to assist individuals or groups to engage with themself and the movements involved in their activity. Here are some examples:
