A story through the Feldenkrais method
or -- The members of Group-13

A documentary feature {48 minutes}
Produced and directed by Shet .H. Levi

It all began one day when I thought I saw a friend in the street. I was about to call out to him, Haim! But at that very moment I realized that it wasn't him, something about the way he moved wasn't right. That was my first experience with the sense of movement ....




"A story about the Feldenkrais method" is a documentary feature in which a historic meeting is taking place. Group-13 consists of the immediate disciples of Moshe Feldenkrais, who participated, in his first course for trainers that took place between the years 1968--1971, and who have not congregated since.

This feature paints a fascinating collage of the participants' thoughts and memories. They have each paved a unique pathway for the Method, by contributing their personal philosophies and backgrounds to the practice. They are equally responsible for the development, imparting and spreading of Feldenkrais. Together, these vignettes concoct an exciting drama, which brings about an understanding of the participants' journey towards awareness and self-consciousness.

The film invites us to ponder upon the applications of the Method, on a personal and universal scale. The issues, which emerge, are relevant to all viewers- whether they have practiced Feldenkrais or not.

Seven out of the thirteen original disciples participated in the Group-13 reunion: Ruth Alon, Shlomo Efrat, Devora Hisdai, Yochanan Ryverant, Chava Shelhav, Eli Vadler and Bruria Milo, who passed away during the making of this film- which is dedicated to her.

As Bruria Milo said:
" Feldenkrais is a process. What is interesting is not the final product, but how someone reaches his/her goal. The way, the pathway to the destination is interesting. The way of doing so makes all the difference."

blackeconomics carolann41

you are both wrong, ask some one who knows what was exchanged on that brief encounter

Hello Randy. Thought you should know this: Moshe and Alexander never met but Moshe admired his work. A loose quote from Moshe "If Alexander had been fortunate enough to have my educational background he would have developed my method!" Carol Ann in Egypt

Feldenkrais was a pupil of the great Australian teacher F.M. Alexander, who taught Feldenkrais for many years.
