Muscles learn, too
As a Feldenkrais teacher, you are trained in the value of skeletal support. But your understanding of muscularity and how muscles contribute to lessons may be less coherent. Clarifying your understanding of muscular synergies deepens your study of Awareness Through Movement lessons. Muscles are the primary means through which we generate movement as well as restore balance, and they’re the main tissues through which sensory information arrives and is governed. Integrating a muscular understanding into your teaching neither kills the mystery, nor complicates the model of movement and awareness that we teach. It adds to and deepens our explanations and interpretations of the method and can engage your audiences with ideas and images that have greater specificity, reliability and functional value.
