Assistant Professor and Awareness Through Movement instructor Richard Ehrman, who created and teaches the popular course, asks students to write about what the lessons are doing for them and their music making. Saxophonist Ari Pizer complained of severe arm pain when he signed up for the course. It was amazing. I have tried a lot of different methods but to no avail. I don't feel bad about my playing because of lack of practicing.
Some students find the lessons provide a general change as well.
By improving the ability to sense oneself in action, the Feldenkrais Method addresses a musicians abilities at a deeper level. The class has helped me become better at noticing things about myself and about my playing. By being more aware of myself, I feel that I am playing with less effort and also sounding better. I'm definitely a more comfortable player now. Everything has changed from the way I carry my instrument to how I carry a tune.
