ILR549 Feldenkrais for Better Balance
8 sessions, 12 hours
Fear of falling is one of the greatest concerns for us as we
age. Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, a physicist, judo master and
pioneer in neuroplasticity, developed a system of heightening
self-awareness through extraordinarily gentle and subtle
movement. Research demonstrates that Feldenkrais® is an easy,
effective way to improve balance and mobility, and an added
benefit is improved cognition. Participants report feeling taller,
younger and more steady on their feet. This class requires the
use of a special mat that allows for sliding (no yoga mats). If
participants do not own the proper mat, they can purchase one
from the FCC bookstore.
Instructor:
Hannah Vo-Dinh is a Guild Certified Feldenkrais
Practitioner, having completed 4 years of training in the
Feldenkrais Method®. She has taught classes at All Saints’
Episcopal, Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Frederick,
Common Market and the Frederick County Public Libraries. In
addition, she organized the Frederick Feldenkrais Festivals, and
has been a guest instructor at the Baltimore and DC Feldenkrais
festivals. She is the owner of Mind Body Sense, LLC and works
privately with clients to improve posture, balance and mobility.

ILR700 Just Try It! BeginningYoga
5 sessions, 7.5 hours
Yoga will help you feel good. It’s a fun activity that can produce
powerful results, wake up your body, sharpen your mind, and
clarify your spirit. This course introduces you to the basic
movements and poses of yoga so you may begin the process of
transforming the way you look, feel, and move as you proceed
safely and at your own pace. Through your practice, you will
discover a new level of physical, energetic, and emotional
consciousness, all the while building strength, flexibility and
improved range of motion. All poses will be carefully modified
for each student’s needs and abilities. Bring a yoga mat and other
props, if you have them, or two rolled up bath towels.
Instructor:
Linda Franklin, RYT200, began practicing yoga
in 2008 as a way to reduce stress and improve focus, while
increasing fitness. She was so taken by the inclusive, gentle
approach of her teacher, that she pursued and received her own
teaching certification from the Kripalu Center for Yoga and
Health in Lenox, Massachusetts, and Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra
training from Jennifer Reis. Linda’s classes have a gentle touch,
and focus on listening to and respecting the body’s messages -
