Improve Your Posture with the
Feldenkrais Method®
8 sessions, 12 hours
Everyone wants good posture, but how do we achieve it? The
conventional directives like “sit up straight”, “shoulders back and
down”, “chest high and chin up” add layer upon layer of tension to
a system that already knows how to be upright. In this Feldenkrais®
series you will be guided through developmental movement patterns
that you did as an infant and experience how swiftly your system
can spontaneously re-align for being upright with pleasure and ease.
Participants must be able to lie on a mat. 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.

Using Your Smart Phone for Digital
Photography – Tips and Tricks
3 sessions, 6 hours
Today’s smart phone cameras take excellent quality photos that rival
your point and shoot camera. In fact, with the great photo taking and
additional photo-enhancement features on your phone, you may not
need to carry an additional camera. Your phone is right at hand when
you need it! Learn how to use the camera and explore how the camera
interfaces with other applications on the phone. Topics include: taking
photos with the smart phone, how to enhance and share photos, apps
to modify photos, printing photos from your phone, and other apps
that use the camera. You might be surprised just what your camera
can do.
