Feldenkrais with Nanae

🧠 Ever wonder how Feldenkrais® Practitioners are trained?

It’s not a weekend workshop or a quick certification.
Feldenkrais training is a deep dive into movement, learning, and the nervous system—spanning 160 days over at least 3 years.

Certified through the Feldenkrais Guild® of North America, practitioners commit to ongoing education and ethical practice—ensuring a standard of care rooted in experience and embodied understanding.

【歩く姿が、武である。】

「歩」も「武」も、長さの単位である、ということを初めて知った。

一歩は六尺。そしてその半分の三尺（約九〇・九センチメートル）が武なのだとか。

(古代中国で制定され、日本語で言う「二歩」が、「一歩」の身体尺だった。)

つまり、左右の足を一歩ずつ出した長さが、「武」ということだ。

・

「歩く姿が、武である。」

これは、合氣道開祖の植芝盛平翁が残した言葉。

そして、柔道の創始者である嘉納治五郎氏のこの身体の在り方は、まさにそれを体現しているように見える。

立ったり、座ったり、しゃがんだり、寝転がったり、という日常の動きが、そのまま技につながっている。

そして、

この、確固たる軸の通った立ち姿には、惚れ惚れしてしまう。。。

この軸があるから、
結果として技をかけられた方も、不安など感じる間もなく、(暴力ではなく)何が起きたかわからないまま、転がってしまうのだと思う。

（合氣道でも、上手な人に技をかけられると、何が起きたかわからないうちに、転がっていることがある。）

そこが、争いが起きる前に納める「武」たる所以であり、相手が争う気を無くしてしまう技の現れなのではないだろうか。

"[...] Sarò il vostro ultimo insegnante. Non perché sarò il più grande che possiate mai incontrare, ma perché da me imparerete come imparare.
Quando imparerete come imparare, vi renderete conto che non esistono insegnanti, che ci sono solo persone che apprendono e persone che imparano come facilitare l'apprendimento."

For my record.

A new study finds the key role of bone in regulating the fight or flight response. In response to alarm signals from the brain, nerves within bone release osteocalcin, which immediately lowers the parasympathetic "brake" and lets the fight or flight response take over!

https://m.phys.org/news/2019-09-bone-adrenaline-flight-response.html

This research is no surprise to anyone that studies or works with fascia, the connective tissue network of the body that is especially dense around the muscles. Fascia is known to play a huge role in the fight or flight nervous system and is also continuous with bone.

Although we think of bone as "solid," 20% of it is actually water, and electrical charges and movement of this water transmits mechanical messages through bone, just like it does through fascia. In fact some scientists call bone "mineralized fascia."

According to a recent review article, "bone is part of the fascial continuum...that constantly transmits and receives mechano-metabolic information." https://www.cureus.com/articles/16943-bone-tissue-is-an-integral-part-of-the-fascial-system

It is fascinating to see how scientists are unravelling the complex interplay between the nervous and musculoskeletal systems!

Finalmente un giusto riconoscimento per i benefici del Metodo Feldenkrais

👇👇👇

Approvato dalla Regione del Veneto il progetto di ricerca scientifica denominato BRAIN UP.

In collaborazione con la Fondazione Giovani Leoni ETS, 20 bambini affetti da paralisi cerebrale verranno trattati con il

Il metodo Feldenkrais si basa sulle neuroplasticità ed aiuta il cervello a creare nuove connessioni che possono supplire a quelle danneggiate.

Il progetto BRAIN UP, primo al mondo, amplia le possibilità terapeutiche offerte ai bambini con paralisi cerebrale e alle loro famiglie.
