STUDENT TESTIMONIALS:
“I cannot say enough about Paul’s humility, sensitivity, knowledge, and skill in the Feldenkrais Method. He has grasped the concept-the core of the work-realizing that the work stands on its own, in pure form, needing no other modality to muddy the waters.”
Asya Search, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner & long standing member of The Feldenkrais Guild of North Americ

“Paul teaches his classes in the Feldenkrais Method with precise indications, images, and appropriate guidance. The experience of each Feldenkrais lesson, as instructed by Paul, is unique and is enriched with his knowledge and unique sense of humor.”
Anabel Cardenas, Ballet and Yoga instructor
“For 2 years I had been limping around, favoring the chronic arthritis pain in my hip that made me miserable every day of my life. One day a friend took me to my first Feldenkrais class with Paul and I soon knew that I was in the right place. I floated out of the room an hour later. Not only did my hip pain subside over the next few classes, but the rest of my body and spirit became happier, too. I had discovered on a visceral level how interconnected everything is. Six months later, I no longer limp, nor do I need to. Thank you Paul and Feldenkrais!”
Deborah Whitehouse, Artist
“The women told me that your class was one of the best experiences (and most healing) that they had while on "retreat". Thank you for your time, attention and thoroughness.”
Kate Short, Holistic Health Counselor
“Yesterday I had a remarkable experience…performed by local Feldenkrais practitioner and friend Paul Voudouris… I had gone into a highly relaxed state. The day after…I experienced a few "healing reactions" such as a mild headache and some moodiness. But this is normal with any type of body-work, after energy has been moved and is finding its way out of the body. Now I'm feeling better than ever! I had previously taken some group classes with Paul, finding them to be both relaxing and extremely challenging. (It's not always easy to exercise your mind while moving your body!)”

"Oh, boy...I had the Feldenkrais session this morning and it was truly incredible. It was the first treatment that made sense to me. I felt like my body was experiencing the first kindness it had been offered in a long time. It was sort of a fully-clothed movement massage. I realized how cruel and harsh I had been to my body, how crude and almost violent other methods of treatment are and how abusive I was to my body with the yoga. Well, with all types of exercise really. The movements are so tiny and gentle. Everything is done with such mindfulness and compassion. I felt comfortable with Paul. I felt very safe, actually.”
Abi Carver, Yoga Instructor
“Thank you for the great session! I walked to the Rosewood & back! I was walking, Paul – walking…Again, I must tell you how neat it felt walking…you are fantastic!!!!”
Patti Z., Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator
“Hola, Master Healer. Without fail, every time I see you, I always come away with great relief…I'm certain that your treatments delve deep into my central nervous system, and calm the whole body organism. There's nothing like it!”

“I feel I’m a professional alternative health aficionado. There’s not much I haven’t investigated—even Ukrainian stem cells—as an extremely health conscious and youthful 73 yr. old. Never been hospitalized, my only concern is a congenital hip malformation, and I’m determined to avoid hip replacement as much as possible. What Paul does is magic: he brings not only his extensive professional training to the session—but all of who he is, in a healing capacity. The result is a profound, subtle, transformative experience every week. I can’t describe it to friends—only that it keeps me pain free, balanced, centered, and determined to never miss a session.”
Mary Li, Artist
“I so look forward to my weekly session with Paul. I feel aligned, centered, and fully relaxed. I leave with such a sense of well being. Thank you!”
Nathalie Hinshaw, Artist
“I am totally pain free. I am in my ninth decade. Paul keeps my body/joints in fine alignment.”
Natalie Hardy, Student
“Las sesiones que Paul da del Método Feldenkrais me ayudaron enormemente a la percepción que tengo de mi propio cuerpo. Incluso, los movimientos sutiles y repetitivos que el realiza me ayudaron a mejorar mi postura, la sensación que tengo al caminar, y la percepción del dolor. El acomodo que el realizó se quedo dentro de mi y la sesión siguió teniendo efecto días después.”
Laura Montes, Doctora y Educadora
“Πολλοί υπόσχονται πολλά. Τελικά δίνουν λιγότερο και από λίγα! Ο Πωλ Βουδούρης δεν λέει λόγια. Απλά κάνει τη δουλειά του: με συνέπεια, με φροντίδα στη λεπτομέρεια, με χιούμορ, με επίγνωση του τι μπορεί να συμβαίνει κάτω από τη χαμένη σύνδεση του ανθρώπου με το σώμα του ή ό, τι το ορίζει και με την έμπνευση ενός ηγέτη γίνεται η παρουσία και ο φάρος καθώς διακριτικά βοηθά να θυμηθείς, να εμπιστευτείς και να ξαναβρείς αυτό που πάντα ήταν εκεί και κάποια στιγμή το έκρυψες. Ο Πωλ είναι καλλιτέχνης πάνω απ' όλα κι αυτό σημαίνει πως όλη του η εργασία είναι μια διαδικασία που σου επιτρέπει να δεις αυτό που μέχρι τότε δεν μπορούσες, και να επανασυνδεθείς με το ιερό και όσιο που πάντα είναι εκεί και περιμένει.”

“I slept almost the entire afternoon and then I had a very peaceful last evening. I showed my friend the exercises with my feet. And my ribs feel soft. Something has opened up in my mind!”

“I do not need to understand how or why your Feldenkrais sessions work, but they have made a positive physical and emotional balance look like an achievable goal.”

“Paul Voudouris is a singer, songwriter, and keyboard artist with twenty-eight releases to his credit, a devoted following, critical acclaim, and a personal history that can only be called improbable. Born in Libya in 1956 to a Greek mother and a Greek-American father, Voudouris teamed up with Wisconsin-born musician Chris Spheeris in the 1970s, and the duo became all the rage on the concert circuit, with a unique fusion of new age and pop romanticism. The AllMusic Guide declared the duo had “set standards in new age music circles,” and the two partners recorded a benefit album with luminaries such as Yanni and Vangelis. Then, in the mid-1980s, the duo split up to sign individual record deals – Spheeris with CBS, and Voudouris with EMI. Ill at ease in the world of the major label, Voudouris soon ended his contract and went back to recording independently. And he took to the road. He spent seven years in Sedona, Arizona, before ending up in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, where he has lived for the past 27 years. For a time, he toured and recorded with fellow musician (and neighbor) Doc Severinsen. Along the way, he became a Feldenkrais practitioner, and – quite seriously – a designer and vendor of luxury flyswatters.” Written by novelist Fredric Dannen
