How is Feldenkrais different from yoga?
You feel the body in movement, not through shape. In yoga, attention is directed to the alignment of the bones and the work of the muscles.

What does Feldenkrais do?
The Feldenkrais Method is a type of exercise therapy devised by Israeli Moshé Feldenkrais (1904–1984) during the mid-20th century. The method is claimed to reorganize connections between the brain and body and so improve body movement and psychological state.
