The FELDENKRAIS METHOD is expressed in two parallel forms: AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT and FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION.
AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT consists of verbally directed movement sequences presented primarily to groups. There are several hundred hours of AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT lessons. A lesson generally lasts from thirty to sixty minutes. Each lesson is usually organized around a particular function.
FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION is a hands-on form of tactile, kinesthetic communication. The FELDENKRAIS METHOD practitioner communicates to the student how he/she organizes his/her body and hints, through gentle touching and movement, how to move in more expanded functional motor patterns.

About The Feldenkrais Method
from:http://www.feldenkraistrainingprograms.com/tfm.htm
The Feldenkrais Method is an innovative approach to human understanding, learning, and change, which can be used to help both oneself and others.
The Feldenkrais Method is recognized for its remarkable ability to improve posture, flexibility, and coordination, and to help those with restricted movement, chronic tension, and pain, developmental, psychological, and neurological problems, performing artists, athletes, and everyone wishing to live and move more comfortably.
The Feldenkrais Method explores the biological and cultural aspects of movement and posture, and how habitual, ways of moving, feeling, and acting can constrain us to a small portion of our potential.
Through our personal history, upbringing, culture, injuries, illness, etc., we each adopt patterns of physical and psychological behavior. These patterns are deeply embedded in our nervous system, and often become outmoded or dysfunctional, creating unnecessary physical, and psychological limitations.
The Feldenkrais Method uses organic learning, movement, and sensing to free us from habitual patterns and allow for new patterns of thinking, moving and feeling to emerge.
The Feldenkrais Method was developed by Moshé Feldenkrais, D.Sc., who synthesized insights from physics, motor development, bio-mechanics, psychology, and martial arts to develop a powerful, effective, and practical application, demonstrating the inseperableness of thought, feeling, perception and action.
