Having a progressive neurological condition involves navigating life in a changing body. Feldenkrais lessons make it easier for us to respond to fluctuations in our comfort and function in both practical and personal ways, give us options, and enrich our understanding of our body and ourselves.Â
Â
We are delighted to announce a six-week Feldenkrais class series with Beth Rubenstein, our distinguished colleague and guest teacher. In addition to being a Physical Therapist, Beth has been a Feldenkrais Teacher for 35 years. She specializes in using the Feldenkrais Method to help people with multiple sclerosis and other progressive neurological disorders.
Â
In many ways, Feldenkrais lessons are an ideal resource for people who have multiple sclerosis because they focus on what we can do instead of what we can’t do and strengthen the neurological pathways that organize our balance and coordination by engaging our brain's neuroplasticity.
Â
Please join Beth Rubenstein to enjoy six classes designed to improve your neuromuscular health while sitting in a chair or lying down. The lessons will be safe, gentle, easy to do, and empowering. They will give you an opportunity to pay attention to yourself in a non-critical way and make important sensory distinctions that can improve your neuromuscular connections and overall comfort and function.
Â
Beth’s approach reflects the depth of her expertise, dedication, and her family’s experience with multiple sclerosis. We look forward to featuring her at Feldenkrais Access.

"As a neuroscientist interested in the development and plasticity of the nervous system, it is gratifying to see how the Feldenkrais Method demonstrates these principles. The Feldenkrais Method has also greatly improved my personal quality of life – physically and emotionally – by reducing the restrictions and limitations I thought were permanent due to MS."
-Marla Luskin, Ph.D., Emory University Medical School
