Physical Therapy & Feldenkrais Nyc's Online Review Report Card

I had private sessions with Marek after terrible back problems this summer. I received the best of care. Marek offers something special and the Feldenkrais institute, the technique, its classes and all the people there are simply the BEST.

I was having hip pain in that part of the bone that sticks out to the side (like what you lie on when you lie on your side). and I could only limp, not walk. It came on very suddenly one evening, seemingly out of nowhere while I was sitting in a chair, and was just as painful all the next day. I thought, I will buy Marek's hip course. If it works, it will save me a lot of time as my nearest Feldenkrais practitioner is 2 hours away and I need to get someone to drive me there. That is a lot of man-hours and gasoline! Plus it would probably be days or a week before I could see her. I went online and purchased your Happy Hips course. I had access to the course instantly (no two hour drive) and did the first anatomy lesson. After that, my hip was already improved. Right after the anatomy lesson I did the movement lesson and after that I could walk normally with just a small amount of discomfort!--I believe the discomfort at that point was some residual inflammation. By the next day I was totally better and have been since! Thank you so much! You are truly an excellent teacher! I feel that your understanding of anatomy and how you explain it really helps the movement lessons be so much more meaningful--potent!

This was an EXCELLENT course. I had no idea ahead of time how much I would learn and how helpful it would be to me. It's one thing to learn different ways of moving - but when applied to habitual/everyday moments, it's instantly applicable and thenceforth - you're moving differently. And life is better!

I am currently taking my second online course with Marek. I love how he combines awareness and anatomy; the combination of his Physiotherapy and Feldenkrais training is just what my system needs! I wish I lived in NYC so I could see Marek in person.

The instruction and awareness of my skeleton has really changed how I position my body. This is wonderful and I feel pain-free!

This was a wonderful very well organized and very well presented course. I enjoyed the daily Mini Lessons to practice the skills. And the gift is that I have not had neck pain or back pain since I’ve done the course! Thank you, thank you

Two months ago I was looking for assisted living. I'm 75 and my lovely apartment is a 4th floor walk up. My knees couldn't take it. The pain was bad and getting worse, and I was resigned to living with the pain and all the limitations that came with it. Now, after working with Marek for two months, the pain is completely gone. I've gone from looking for a place to lie down for the duration to looking for new adventures. My mental and emotional outlooks have improved along with my body. I can't remember when I've felt this good. Felddenkrais is magic and Marek is the top magician. I've worked with some others, and none compare. This is the place to become your best self.

Leave your thinking brain and all compulsion to improve behind and try this Method. You will be astounded how the highly skilled staff of professionals at this extraordinary clinic can guide you to improved movement and reduced pain through body awareness. There are many years behind me but I hope for more than a few more as I continue to learn how to walk tall without pain.

Marek brings a very powerful combination of medical and somatic approaches to his teaching. Giving an anatomical and biomechanical introduction prior to walking lessons went a long way with me. As a Feldenkrais practitioner I've long felt that our professional training programs lack a solid grounding in basic anatomy. As a physical threrapist and Feldenkrais practitioner, Marek's perfectly suited to bridge that gap, and does so with great clarity. His lessons are equally suitable for members of the general public who have no experience of the Feldenkrais approach.

I hesitated to join this course as i've done a few ATMs on walking and wondered if it would be ground Id covered. NO WAY. It's a really thorough, scientific grounding in anatomy and physiology of walking that's also up to its eyes in Feldenkrais Method so that it's really enjoyable and easy to learn - at last!! - how to walk with efficiency and grace. I'm signing up for the rest of the course no question.
