Beyond being a natural teacher, it is Janelle's kindness, tolerance and especially gentleness that reaches out to her students, breaking down our built up defenses. She guides students to awakening awareness and creates that rare safe environment where physical self-awareness can be observed lovingly without criticism. The Feldenkrais Method has broken some of my preconceived notions of who and what I am. I feel physically and emotionally better, more aware of pleasure and I am kinder to myself. I sleep better.

I am more at home with my body than ever before in my life and I am now forty-eight. Janelle's structural integration sessions leave me centered, taller and with a subtly new sense of how I might sit or move. I really appreciate the delicacy and precision in her lessons. I find the weekend workshops challenging. They shake up assumptions I've always made about how I am in space, allowing me to move in ways I hadn't thought possible.

I have experienced the elegance of my body and its movement. I now walk and stand differently. It has added more fun to my body. Janelle joined me in my learning and we participated together to learn about my body. I loved it.

I have learned to keep a good range of mobility in an aging body. I've begun to learn a better route of sending my weight through an old knee injury. The Feldenkrais Method keeps me feeling younger and lighter. Feldenkrais is easily the best system of theraputic and maintenance body work around and Janelle is a very skilled practitioner.
-Cal Kinnear

I feel more conscious of my body & more pleasure in it. I'm less like a wilting plant - more like one that draws its strength from the ground, more upright, more springy, breathing more deeply and walking more smoothly. I feel much better about my figure. I feel an additional pleasure in being alive. Janelle is a great teacher.
