Ruthy Alon

Meeting the right teacher at the right time determined Ruthy’s life’s calling. She graduated from Moshe Feldenkrais’s first training in 1969, went on to become a senior Feldenkrais trainer for many decades, and benefited from a close working relationship with Dr. Feldenkrais until his death. The Feldenkrais Method is “not just a method of body movement” said Ruthy, “but rather an awakening of bodily resourcefulness and creativity.”
~From the Movement Intelligence website
Ruthy published her book Mindful Spontaneity: Lessons in the Feldenkrais Method in 1990 and established the Foundation of Movement Intelligence in Israel in May 2008. She created the widely recognized Bones for Life program, as well as Walk for Life and other Movement Intelligence programs which adapted the Feldenkrais Method into specialized, goal-oriented practices.
“Improvement of specific movements in the process of learning becomes merely a bonus, the real gain being that your life takes on a new, positive direction.”
~Ruthy Alon
