What Is The Feldenkrais® Method And How Can It Be Applied To Vocal Learning?
Thursday 17th February 2022, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
In this workshop, Robert will introduce you to the classic Feldenkrais approach to movement improvement and demonstrate how it can be applied in the vocal context.
Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais (1904-1984), the eponymous creator of the Feldenkrais® Method of Somatic Education, was a Physicist and Engineer, Martial Artist and Movement Educator.
In endeavoring to work with his own knee injury from when he was 18 years old–which doctors at that time said could not be improved by surgery or any other medical intervention–Dr. Feldenkrais eventually created a way of working with himself (and any other person) that could improve physical function through expanded awareness, movement and learning regardless of structure or pathology.
Called “the first neuroplastician” by Dr. Norman Doidge (author of “The Brain’s Way of Healing”), Feldenkrais’ method is now used by Certified Feldenkrais Practitioners™ around the world to work with people who have been injured or live with diseases for which little other help exists.
The Feldenkrais® Method is also beneficial for artists, performers, athletes and anyone else interested in improving movement, function, awareness and ability of any sort!
In essence, “Feldenkrais” is a way of thinking. Although Dr. Feldenkrais, himself, chose movement to be it’s main mode of transmission, the method can also be applied in diverse ways, to and through many other modalities.
Robert Sussuma, singer, voice teacher and Feldenkrais Practitioner™, has adapted the principles and movement strategies from the traditional Feldenkrais cannon and re-formatted them in new ways to assist in vocal learning for singers, actors and voice users of all levels.
