I am deeply grateful to have found this lesson. My “frozen shoulder” returned after prolonged sitting, and it was excruciating. This lesson has given me the most relief of all of the methods and therapies I have tried. Thank you for sharing this, and your instruction is exceptional. You are a wonderful teacher!
Thank you so much Chene. I am really pleased the lesson helped with your shoulder. Wishing you and yours a wonderful new year 🙏
Thank you very much! I hope the same for your as well in the New Year!@@stewarthamblin
My Heavens! This lesson was wonderful. I haven’t been able to walk without pain for 30+ years and after doing this twice my leg pain is greatly diminished. Stewart you have a gift for teaching Feldenkrais. Thank you so much!
You are very welcome Glen. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment. I am delighted to hear that the lesson has helped you with your leg pain. Have a wonderful weekend. Stewart
Love your lessons. I re do the old ones all the time. Thank you. Greetings from Melbourne Australia.

Thank you for this lesson. Very good lesson for tightening in neck and shoulders. I really need this movement in 2024.
You are very welcome Satsuko and wishing you a wonderful New Year 🙏
A kind of a magic is happening throughout the lesson. When I started the first roll to the left... it was so uncomfortable, painful in my left shoulder blade and up to the neck, so I was doing it gently-gently. All those sensations disappeared completely after 3-5 minutes of the lesson, and i was just enjoying the rest of the workout! You are one of the best Feldenkrais teachers on-line! Gratitude and thanks a lot!
Thank you Stewart! These lessons are life changing! 💝🌈🙏
You are very welcome Ben. I am glad they are helping 😊
Ps I love your designs
Once again, thank you ever so much for your Feldenkrais videos.
You are always so very welcome Cecilia. I hope you are well 🙏
Excellent lesson for the shoulders. Thank you so much. My right shoulder has become extremely tight. So these were very hard to do. But I can see the work that needs to be done and you have given me the way to do it. Again thank you
You are very welcome Gia. Thank you for taking the time to leave a message and Happy New Year!
Another great lesson. Thank you Stewart!
I’ve had frozen shoulder on both side, so these lessons really help!
That's so wonderful Denise. Have a lovely weekend. It looks as though Spring is finally arriving here 😊
Enlightening! Thank you Stewart!
Thank you, that was great...I look forward to doing more of your lessons
Muchas gracias, Stewart.✌️
A good refresher for those of us who participate in your lessons. Once you have watched the video my suggestion would be to do it by just listening and not watching
Good stuff; many thanks.
Great lesson Stewart. Thank you. P & N
Many thanks, Stewart, for the wonderful series of lessons. And thank you for your wonderful calming presence and voice.

great lesson for the shoulders, thanks for sharing with all the community
Thank you very much Majava for the feedback. I really enjoy making the videos so its wonderful to hear that people are enjoying them.
Merry Christmas in June! Thank you Stewart!
You are welcome Andrei, have a lovely weekend.
OMG I love you as an instructor. So glad I found this. I did your feet video.
Thank you so much Hew195050! Have a lovely weekend 😊
Amazing
I feel like a different person. Turbo you for taking the time to make these videos to help us.
You are very welcome, thank you for the message.
Thank you. This lesson is excellent, Your voice is so relaxing, I really enjoyed it. Marcela from Argentina
Thank you very much Marcela. I hope you are well and safe 😊
Definitely unglued my shoulders and felt a lot of popping. Thank you!
You are very welcome Brionne. Thank you for letting me know how you found the two lessons ☺️
Just found your channel!!! Amazing lesson. Thank you do much!
Thank you so much Ana, that is so kind of you.
Hi Stewart, thank you for this great class. I loved the movements. I've done a significant amount of class work and individual work with practitioners in Melbourne, Australia.
Thank you for making this available to us. It's greatly appreciated.
You are very welcome Dean. Thank you very much for your message 😊
@@stewarthamblin i was just teaching a singing lesson on Zoom after i got off the floor with you. I was in the mindspace to move the student's arms and upper torso in ways that encouraged the scapula to be more fluid and it was delightful for both of us. Also, my own singing voice was free, clear and warm after your class. Thank you 🙏
I love and need this lesson. The problem is to choose one from so many movements of Feldenkrais. After several breathing lessons my pain in the lumber spine reduced and much easier to start to walk from the floor. This lesson has many sensitive sequences. My body from head to toes, every parts work together and concentration helps movement. I feel good and happy. Good night and rest! Thank you very much.
Thank you and good night Satsuko!
Liked these movements a lot but did find it a bit quick particularly towards the end. Look forward to more and thank you for sharing.
Deep Sleep Clinic Deirdre O Connor thanks so much for the feedback Deidre, I really appreciate it. I am hoping to film the next lesson this weekend.
Great lesson
Thanks so much Natalie 😊
Merry Christmas 2021 Stewart! Just done this class so thanks for this little prezzie - amazingly helpful for me as currently suffering from frozen shoulder and all sorts of issues due to WFH. I know you from legal days many moons ago 😊 thank you so much for educating us and sharing Feldenkrais method.
How lovely to hear from you Michelle! I am glad the lesson helped. A very Merry (and safe) Christmas to you too! x
Really liked this lesson. Noticed a good amount of improvement at the end of the lesson!
Thank you Gail, that's wonderful.
Thank you so much for this video. I have found it so good for my recovery from a frozen shoulder. The pain level has decreased greatly and the mobility has increased. Thank you.
Someone down the comments mentioned that at some point he felt water triggled down his ear. Hey, I felt too. But while the person mention he felt nausea， it wasn't a discomfort for me at all.
It is magic. ☺️
Thank you 😊
Every time I try your video, I am very interested in your lesson. I tried this lesson last two mornings. Since I started your lesson, my body is lighter little by little than before, for example, going up and down the steps, getting up from the chair. I really would like to try every videos. It takes time because I need to try again and again. I have to check many words in a dictionary but it is good for me to understand what you are talking. Anyway, thank you so much.
It's so cool how you are progressing through the lessons Satsuko. I am delighted to hear that they are of help to you. I only wish I could speak Japanese. Have a lovely weekend. Stewart
Hi Stewart! Sorry I couldn't attend on Monday, but I keep doing this every day and it REALLY helps. The second one with rolling your fists, not so much :( "rolling" hurts in my rotator cup ouchies, lol. I cant wait to see the TMJ one! :P
Hi Deb, no worries and thank you for the message. It means you are being a very good Feldenkrais practitioner if you are staying away from the movements that are causing you pain!
Muito obrigado pela aula! Uma delícia !
Obrigado. Eu realmente aprecio o feedback.
Hi Stuart, I imagine you would like to know that I am still disciplined with your lessons. Just to let you know, as many people must do it once or twice and then bye, yeah I am realizing that my occiput is fiercely stuck. I also switch to your ribs and knees, videos. Cheers
Hi Lucy, its great to hear from you. Am glad you are safe and well.
That was truly ungluing!!! Though I am used to very very slow feldenkrais, and I would have you rather put five moves like a turtle and then do a part 2,than with this speed. But very good and effective straight away. Thank you.
Thank you Lucy. Quite often I like to put the ATMS into a more flowing sequence for my students and this was one of those.
Nevertheless, from having an insidious locked shoulder, couldn't sleep night before, yesterday, I did your session at 9pm,and, results, incredible!!! And so far, it is morning and shoulder, is, functional, unlocked!
👌Quite interested to understand the ribs, in movility impingement? Once more, thank you!!!!
@@lucycarlos4923 That's wonderful Lucy. Thank you for letting me know. If you think about all the muscles that attach to the ribs and the shoulder you can probably see how the organisation of the ribs and chest have a huge impact on the shoulder.
great atm. my collar bones are sadly a bit stuck at the sternum. do you know any other arms I could do before this one
I've got winged scapula and this really targeted that. After doing it I could do the so called scratch test with my right fingertips touching the left behind my back.
Am so glad the lesson helped Jaanus. Thank you for your message.
Oh, my God, this was so wonderful, thank you so much. My shoulder feels SO much better! Any advice for relaxing the TMJ tension and best way to drive? Sorry for so many questions! :) It feels as if shoulder neck and TMJ are all related, and I have it all one one side, right side (righty, of course then, tense when writing and driving). Thank you being there for us! Deb
Thank you so much Deb, I am so pleased you like the lesson. I will try and do a video about TMJ soon but in the meantime you may be interested in a new online course I am launching for Neck and Shoulders on Monday through my Fit Sit website. If you are interested you can register your interest through this link and I will be sending out details on Monday:

@@stewarthamblin thank you Stewart! I just signed up :) I think I might take the workout session if it works with my schedule! You’re the best!
Any tips for driving will be so welcome :P I just came back from driving and my workout lesson with you almost ruined haha, no I’m ok, but driving and sitting writing are the worst for me and my shoulders agh! :)
Nicely done. Just subscribed to your channel. I'm based in NYC. :)
Thank you!
@@stewarthamblin Really loved how you explained/taught this lesson. Curious who your mentors were in Feld training?
@@mezzofeldenkrais6131 my big influencers were Moshe of course, but then Garet Newell, Ned Dwellie, Jeremy Krause and Carl Ginsberg.
@@stewarthamblin I see...so which training did you do? I was in Bersin's training.
@@mezzofeldenkrais6131 oh I love David's work. He was here for a workshop last year. I was in Sussex 7. Garet was our educational director.
Thank you so much for the lesson, I really enjoyed it. Two questions, when the palm is on floor behind the back, what part of the back? and in the last variation could we add one leg slightly crossing over the other to help, or are you trying to just bring legs along with pelvis. Thanks so much for explaining why this works so well! Dar
Thank you Darlene, First question - it very much depends on what the student is capable of without going into pain. Some students find even bringing the hand into the area of the back very difficult. As you get more comfortable with the movement I encourge my students to bring it higher up the back towards the shoulder blades but only if they can do so without pain. Second quesition: I think the answer is to try out your idea and see what happens. Feldenkrais often used to say you can do what you like as long as you know what you are doing.
@@stewarthamblin thank you I love this lesson and your teaching is wonderful!
This lesson is great- my MS spasticity is concentrated in my shoulders and neck, and after the lesson my neck and throat visibly look different as muscles move back where they should be. I can tell this affects my ears as well, halfway through I got the sensation of water moving in my ear.
I will say this lesson made me super nauseous! Something about all the sensations in the neck and throat coupled with the movement of the pelvis. Wondering if anyone else experienced this- it's the first lesson I've had this reaction to.
Thanks Stewart!
Thank you Angela for sharing. I sometimes get a little dizzy because of the taking of the head back in some of the movements. A useful reminder to me to slow it down. Take care Stewart
Hey I felt the sensation of water triggled down my ear to my throat too. Or sort of the ear suddenly opened. But it wasn't a discomfort at all.

"I need my glasses to see you in the camera" ! You can see me in your camera!?
You never know who's watching!
I have a torn rotator cuff, impingement and scapular winging. Are these exercises good for these condition?
Hi Carolyn, I think the best answer I can give you is to check first with your health care provider first particularly if its a recent injury. The movements in the lesson are all to improve the mobility of the shoulder girdle area. If you do try them then always go slowly and never move into pain.
Feldenkrais Moments with Stewart Hamblin
Thank you. This is not a new injury. Have had it for 8 months. Have seen orothopdedic doctors, PT, dry needing, TEnS, steroid shot but it still stays inflamed all the time. I'm signed up for your beginning class today. I hope I can figure out the zoom thing, I've not used it before.
One more thing, is there a lesson to regain the natural cervical curve?✌️
Hi Luyz, I can't really answer this because it very much depends on what is happening with the individual. The issue, for example, may have to do with what is going on with the rest of the spine and how the person is organizing in space. Where is the pelvis, for example, in relation to the person's head in standing, sitting, reaching etc. Generally, its not a good idea to focus on a specific part (which may in fact be a symptom) but to look at how a person's habitual (and often unconscious) patterns are supporting the symptom.
Hello, Stewart. I hope all is well.
Question: la distancia y velocidad de los movimientos en este vídeo son por motivos del vídeo, o uno tiene que tratar (sin dolor) de hacer los movimientos tal y como los muestras aquí?.
Estoy un poco confundido con el concepto de, less is more.
I wish you a happy weekend ✌️
Buena pregunta Luyz. A veces, después de haber explorado estos movimientos lentamente, me gusta juntarlos en secuencias más fluidas. Lo importante es escuchar lo que se siente bien para ti.
@@stewarthamblin Gracias por responder mí pregunta ✌️
I got nauseous turning my head upward. ugh
Do take it easy. Sometimes that can be a sign that a person is looking up just from the head rather than letting the chest be involved. An image I sometimes use is that I have a eyes on the breast bone
