Awareness Through Movement #538

Rolling with the elbows interlaced – SELF ORGANISATION

“What we are learning here is something that is not learned in childhood
in a methodical way, or theoretical way...
then, we learned poems and songs.

The natural way man is a very stupid animal.

He has a brain and he has the ability to learn, to learn and know.
He knows.
He learns what is forbidden,
how to disturb the development;
and this is worse than allowing it to grow as it is able to be.
This is the first wisdom,
the first knowledge

- to distinguish that there are things that you do not need to resist.”
Moshe Feldenkrais (at some point during this lesson)

We have another elbow-y lesson, it could be seen as once the connection with the elbows has been made, we start to look at how they can be used? What difference does it make to know that these knobbly connections are part of your toolkit?
