Comment on Video Cued Recollections of Feldenkrais work, 2010 by George Khut

Thanks Alastair, really valuable feedback. You’re right about the anxiousness factor – that was very palpable at the Advanced Training that Maggie led in Tasmania. Its a recurring issue isn’t it – how to respond to question in a way that is not wholly determined by our need to give the right answer, make the ‘right’ moves, be ‘good’. I’m sure Maggie will be exploring this again sometime this year or next – so keep in touch.
Cheers

George

I had hoped to get to this advanced training; and what you have posted and what I have noticed in my work since viewing and listening to your blog, confirms why. (Maybe there will be other opportunities?) I sense that yours and Maggie’s combined processes would have provided an experience to get more behind the language dependent descriptions I have of FI, into more of the sensory experience. For example when I give an FI under scrutiny; these conditions often provoke self judgement and anxiety that interfere with the neutral and hands-with connection that is more helpful, and perhaps ideal. That video cued recall seems to provide conditions for noticing and examining anxiety of both the prctitioner and the student, and when acknowledged then, must then be potent for learning this difficult art, of FI. It was interesting to read your experience and hear some anxiety of translating your felt experince into language, and to listen to the “dissonance” between the two expressed experiences of yours and Maggies in the video; but then find a sense of quiet and restful space that seemed for me to exist between the two conversations. Somehow this has helped me sense giving FI’s more satisfactorily since; without feeling the need to talk and be bogged down in language and judgement! Thanks.
