Physical Therapy & Feldenkrais Austin

Movement is my nature. After many years dedicated to dance, I decided to study Physical Therapy, graduating in 2004. I explored several approaches to the body and chose to get trained in The Feldenkrais Method of Somatic Education. After graduating from the 4 years training program, I was invited to work at my school, the Feldenkrais Institute of NY, one of the largest centers dedicated to the work of Dr. Feldenkrais in the US. I really appreciate how to Feldenkrais Method gives me tools integrate the whole body and the mind in my treatment sessions. I advanced my studies both in the Feldenkrais Method and in Physical Therapy towards Pelvic Health. I am an activity member in the community, offering informal classes at the University of Texas in Austin about pelvic health and the body pattern of anxiety.
