Well, that was a waste of time.That was Alice's first experience of the Feldenkrais Method 25 years ago. Little did she know she would come to love it and produce a movie about the method years later.
"I felt like I was taken apart and put back together in the way I should be put back together."
That's how Alice Boyd's described her first experience in a 1:1 hands-on Feldenkrais lesson.
