Running and walking are some of the best exercises for the human body. This book teaches readers how to walk and run as nature intended, using awareness exercises to improve health, and increase energy and vitality. It is filled with illustrations to teach how the parts of the body move and work in harmony. All the methods are based on the Feldenkrais method.
Jack Heggie earned a degree in physics and worked as a digital computer design engineer, programmer, and field engineer for ten years before becoming a Feldenkrais Practitioner. He studied with Dr. Feldenkrais in Israel and the US, and has trained with Ruthy Alon, Mia Segal, and Shlomo Efrat, all senior Feldenkrais trainers. Heggie has written about the Feldenkrais approach of learning through awareness for Skiing, NorthWest Skier, Boston SportScape, Snow Country, The Instrmentalist, Direction, and Somatics magazines.
