Firenze 8 (AIIMF)

I will consider the training to be fulfilling its objectives when graduates will have a basic body of knowledge in tools of skills, attitudes, qualities, understanding, experience and motivation to start teaching with an orientation of ever progressive discoveries and creativity, with the clarity of what distinctly makes the Feldenkrais Method a path of organic education.

The characteristic quality of FIRENZE 8 Training will be its supportive atmosphere, providing people a safe ground to process the learning challenges and self-transformation inherent in the learning.

The learning in the training will be done in “layers” or approximations, which means instead of studying a specific subject to its full depth, it will be repeated in different contexts many times, each time with more depth, details, variation, articulation of the inner dynamics and principles, improving the application of the learned material on oneself as well as to another person.

• Students will have access to the material, both audio and video, registered during Training and will be invited to study by themselves or together with other fellow students. In between segments there will be days - of 2 or 3 hours - where the Educational Director and the other Trainers will teach online, to guarantee teaching continuity.
• Particular importance will be given to the study of child development in the light of modern Neurosciences. We will study many of the beautiful lessons that Moshe gave to children.
• Practitioners are invited to the Training so that they can give their support and continue to grow in the Feldenkrais community to become Assistant Trainers.
• Students who have missed a few days - in case of illness or other important motivation - will be given the opportunity to connect online for a few days. In case of longer absences, the training organization will offer in-person make-up periods.
