What we’re about
LESS IS MORE
LESS: stress, discomfort, tension, pain
MORE: ease, flexibility, fluidity, choice
When you drop a pin in a quiet room you can hear it more clearly than in a busy nightclub. Awareness Through Movement applies this principle to our sensory motor experience, exposing unconscious habits in body and mind.
By slowing down and clarifying fundamental biological movement patterns, new options for moving, feeling, and thinking emerge. Improve the quality of your attention in movement and experience a shift in the quality of your life.

See all- Clarity and Results w/ Jeremy KraussWatertown Center for Healing Arts, Watertown, MA$800.00
Clarity in thinking and movement lead to expansive understanding for useful, practical results in daily life and therapeutic situations.
A unique 4 day comprehensive presentation of the different aspects and practices of the Jeremy Krauss Approach, grounded in understanding of Abilities Development and functional use of movement.
In the field of Somatic movement learning much emphasis is often placed on ‘personal experience’ and ‘process orientation’, leaving out ‘results’ and ‘clarity’. How to achieve specific results directly with clear explanations is important for personal and professional development.
Much is left to chance or just glossed over without the clarity of understanding and explanations of how to achieve clear results. This is true for group work in movement and individual somatic therapeutic sessions.
In this workshop you will be led through a variety of unique movement sequences on the floor and in standing, as well as observe demonstrations that will include concrete explanations with specific applications for adults and children.
IN THE 4 DAYS THERE WILL BE:
→ Abilities group lessons and Sensory Active Movement sequences→ A sampling of JKA Solvents and Glue progression in standing
→ Demonstrations of JKA Developmental and Functional Hands-on with adults and children
DISCOVER:
→ Skillful self understanding in motion→ How sequences of movement fit together for specific changes
→ Expanded therapeutic strategies and practical means to connect ‘internally’ to ones self
→ Widened dimensions for self use / self reliance
→ Novel patterns of movement
→ Refreshed ways to think and perceive
UNDERSTAND:
→ How adult movement and developmental movements are fundamentally different→ How various amounts of effort and repetition are useful for different activities and needs
→ How sensations in movement can be specific and recognizable
→ Different rhythms/ speeds lead to different outcomes
RESULTS, IDEAS AND TOOLS:
→ Fuller range of motion in the shoulder blades and joints, hip joints and spine→ Observational skills of adult movement and early development movement
→ Being more upright and the sensory experience of uprightness
→ Broadened capacity for self care of ones musculoskeletal self
→ Concrete and usable new ideas for self use and professional practice
→ Helpful ways to become more stable in the upright position
→ For professionals in the moment and therapeutic fields: usable new ideas for working in groups and adults
