Clarity in thinking and movement lead to expansive understanding for useful, practical results in daily life and therapeutic situations.
A unique 4 day comprehensive presentation of the different aspects and practices of the Jeremy Krauss Approach, grounded in understanding of Abilities Development and functional use of movement.
You will be led through a variety of unique movement sequences on the floor and in standing, as well as observe demonstrations that will include concrete explanations with specific applications for adults and children.
In the 4 days there will be:
Abilities group lessons and Sensory Active Movement sequences
A sampling of JKA Solvents and Glue progression in standing
Demonstrations of JKA Developmental and Functional Hands-on with adults and children
Discover:
Skillful self understanding in motion
How sequences of movement fit together for specific changes
Expanded therapeutic strategies and practical means to connect ‘internally’ to ones self
Widened dimensions for self use / self reliance
Novel patterns of movement
Refreshed ways to think and perceive
Understand:
How adult movement and developmental movements are fundamentally different
How various amounts of effort and repetition are useful for different activities and needs
How sensations in movement can be specific and recognizable
Different rhythms/ speeds lead to different outcomes
Results, Ideas and Tools:
Fuller range of motion in the shoulder blades and joints, hip joints and spine
Observational skills of adult movement and early development movement
Being more upright and the sensory experience of uprightness
Broadened capacity for self care of ones musculoskeletal self
Concrete and usable new ideas for self use and professional practice
Helpful ways to become more stable in the upright position
For professionals in the moment and therapeutic fields: usable new ideas for working in groups and adults
In the field of Somatic movement learning much emphasis is often placed on ‘personal experience’ and ‘process orientation’, leaving out ‘results’ and ‘clarity’.
How to achieve specific results directly with clear explanations is important for personal and professional development.
Much is left to chance or just glossed over without the clarity of understanding and explanations of how to achieve clear results. This is true for group work in movement and individual somatic therapeutic sessions.
Jeremy’s work is a direct outcome of over 40 years of teaching. The clarity of his teaching and the explanations of the results achieved in movement and the kinesthetic level is very unique, refreshing and enlightening. His approach and work encompasses Abilities group lessons and Functional Hands on individual lessons for adults as well as in the domain of early child development and Special needs children.
