Ep.2 Somatic Practices for Dancers ? Paul Pui Wo Lee/ Feldrenkrais & Movement Facilitator

 

In this episode, we engage in an enlightening conversation with Paul Lee, an international dance teacher and Feldenkrais facilitator, about the vital role of somatic practices for dancers and beyond. Together, we explore the current surge in popularity of somatic practices and delve into the reasons driving this trend.

We also confront the stigma that often labels these practices as slow and "boring," discussing how they can actually foster deeper self-awareness and enhance creativity.

How can we shift the perception surrounding these practices to highlight their benefits?

As part of our discussion, Paul introduces the Feldenkrais Method, a unique approach to movement education developed by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais. This method emphasizes awareness through movement, helping individuals improve their physical functioning and overall well-being by exploring their habitual movement patterns. By encouraging mindful movement, the Feldenkrais Method promotes greater flexibility, coordination, and a deeper connection to one’s body.

Join us as we uncover the profound connections between movement, awareness, and creativity, revealing how somatic practices like the Feldenkrais Method can enrich our lives and promote holistic well-being.
