✨ WHAT CAN YOU LOOK FORWARD TO… ✨
… WITH SÁRA BALABÁNOVA? 🌟
We start by slowly calming the nervous system and gradually moving the body. This will support the integration and connection of everything that the body has accumulated during the last weeks. Gradually, we move from movement to dance, with the help of which we let go of everything that no longer needs to be held.

… WITH MARKÉTA RICHTEROVA? 🌟
The Feldenkrais method is a gentle and at the same time deep way of working with the body, movement and attention. Through simple movement lessons, a person discovers new possibilities of movement, greater lightness, flexibility, coordination and perception of one's own body. Lessons are suitable for everyone, regardless of age, physical condition or previous exercise experience. It's not about performance, getting it right, or outdoing yourself. It is an inquisitive discovery of how we can move more freely, with less effort and more joy.

She is an internationally accredited lecturer of the Feldenkrais method, which she studied during a four-year training at the Feldenkrais Institute Wien. He also teaches the Feldenkrais method at DAMU, where he passes it on to acting students.

As an actress, she perceives the body as an everyday tool for creation, expression and cognition.
… WITH TOMÁŠ JANYPKA? 🌟
