This third lesson in the fingers-to-spine series continues to play with the independence of each finger [second lesson coming soon--the recording didn't work]--in relation now to extension, across the shoulders. This is a rare lesson: we do "both sides at once" from about a third of the way in.

Watching the local students do this lesson this week was really a treat. It's like watching a room of people giving themselves FI lessons (one-on-one hands-on Feldenkrais).

When I played during the week with the first rolling to sit ATM we did recently, I spent some time on a particular moment in the movement that's always felt stuck for me. And I uncovered something about how I could "unstick" that moment in the movement by varying what I was doing with my pelvis (and therefore my whole spine).
