Over your life so far have you become an optimized version of your own self?  Optimization is used to describe beneficial developments in technology but what “body bugs” have you optimized lately? Most of us can boast intellectual and spiritual optimization however, in many cases the physical body becomes neglected, less optimized than it was as an earlier/younger version. Some bugs just never get “fixed”!  Without optimization they leave permanent degeneration leading to arthritis, poor performance or chronic pain. The Feldenkrais Method of movement education when used is an incredible tool for learning and optimizing your physical body. By using this method you can learn to move with awareness and intention that will benefit and enhance how your body functions for a lifetime.
