Recently I came across your videos. This particular one made me more straight than I've felt in ages. Of particular note to me, my low right back was arched more than the left low back and my right shoulder tended to go more backward than forward. This lesson made me feel straighter than I have for a long time. Plus my head feels more on top of my shoulders. I look forward to practicing using more of your videos and will return to this one often. Thank you!
Hi Natala Thanks so much for your positive feedback. It really means a lot to me. I love this lesson too. It is based on the teaching of Ruthy Alon. She is now in her 90s and still teaching in the US. Ruthy is a true inspiration as a teacher and as a person so I wanted to acknowledge her. Thanks again for visiting my channel and for your kind comments. Warm regards, Jodie
Just after going through your video once I noticed great relief and assistance to the neck and back discomfort, I was feeling. Thank you for creating and sharing what you know.
Hi Laura, this is not specifically for scoliosis but it might be helpful. Part 2 is really lovely for relaxing the neck and lower back. You could also try this one ruclips.net/video/FK-A8iidKtM/видео.html
Hi Andrea, hope you're well!, It's not the Spine as a Chain, but it is related. It's exploring the relationship between the lumbar and cervical arches using movement of the pelvis, head and eyes.
@@JodieKrantz thanks so much for ur help. My confusion is when Ive done spine as a chain lessons the teacher has said that when u round the head should flatten and when u arch, your cervical spine should also arch more. And I dont find that to be true. So I get confused
And how should u know if you should have the spine moving like a chain or in flexion and extension. How should the arches work in nirmal walking and sitting?
Well done...thank you...loved this...but just a suggestion...these are explorations or investigations if you will, NOT exercises. We have to get away from that type of terminology when dealing with Feldenkrais. It's what distinguishes our work from other modalities.
Yes that's a good point, though Moshe did sometimes refer to his lessons as exercises. To me the important point is that the intention and purpose is learning, not fitness.
@@JodieKrantzYes, I hear what you are saying and I realize this gets into semantics or "languaging" but the issue with exercise" whether Feld used it or not is the idea of mindless effort/repetition rather than exploration/investigation/journey/curiosity etc.
Hi Gamma, Moshe He used both terms in his writing and teaching, but regardless of the word you use the focus is on using awareness to learn and discover. The word 'exercise' can mean fitness activity, but here it means 'a practice that engages mind and body in a learning process'. So it's similar to a child learning to read through doing exercises in an activity book.
These videos look great, but the sound quality is atrocious. I've spent the last hour trying to do this one; Set having to stop and turn the volume up and down. Do you have newer versions of these videos with a better microphone? I would love to continue but right now I'm more tense and more upset from how difficult this was
holy shift gaming thanks for your comment and I apologize for the sound quality. I now have new audio equipment so the sound has much better. Thanks so much for coming to my channel
Thanks for your patience with the audio. Originally I started recording using my mobile phone. Audio quality is so much better on my new videos. Try my new posture series ruclips.net/video/F6__-8KAPCQ/видео.html
Dear Madame, If you wore some decent tight dress then we would have understood better how the gap of the back is lessened. Please understand this is not some criticism it is only a suggestion. And thanks a lot for the exercises.

Hi, is this good for someone with moderate scoliosis?
Hi Laura, this is not specifically for scoliosis but it might be helpful. Part 2 is really lovely for relaxing the neck and lower back. You could also try this one ruclips.net/video/FK-A8iidKtM/видео.html
Is this a flexion extension lesson or spine like a chain? Thanks

@@ImpulsoCreativo9322 yes and this video soups help make doing the chain bridge easier

@@mezzofeldenkrais6131 agreed 😊 I hope this is implicitly clear in my videos but will keep this in mind for future ones
@@JodieKrantz Yes, I enjoy your vids overall - clarity, straightforward, kind and no ego.
I thought feldenkrais called them lessons not exercises?
