The Feldenkrais Method: Power of Self-Transformation with Prof. Abraham Mansbach

Prof. Abraham Mansbach is a professor of philosophy at Ben-Gurion University in Israel and a Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner. He teaches and directs workshops in Europe and Mexico.

In his philosophical work, Abraham specialises in the relationship between selfhood and the body, specifically, in how practices shape persons and their identities. These themes are explored in his recently published book:

The Feldenkrais Method: Power of Self-Transformation.

The book is based on ample research in Moshe Feldenkrais’s writings and lessons and clarifies the principles of the method governing healing and transformation, by showing how it revivifies patterns of movement, their sensorial layers, and the self-image.

Prof. Mansbach offers a theory of the power of healing and change inherent in the method, and at the same time, a practice of the theory by examining exemplary lessons that stage the principles of change of the embodied self. The book also maps out a scientific basis for the method and its application in the process of transformation.

David Zemach-Bersin wrote about Abraham’s book:

The Feldenkrais Method: Power of Self-Transformation by Abraham Mansbach is must reading for every Feldenkrais Practitioner. I feel that it is an important book, and will raise the level of discourse about Moshe Feldenkrais's work. Dr. Mansbach's insights offer us valuable perspectives and practices.
