Malcolm Manning, experiential anatomy trainer

I have over 30 years experience of working with the Feldenkrais Method as a movement educator, researcher and artist. I have extensive experience working with a wide range of people including children with special needs. I also draw from a range of related disciplines, including: in-depth studies of anatomy and physiology, including experiential anatomy and biotensegrity; developmental movement (Body Mind Centering); and a range of somatic dance and movement practices. I came to specialise in these fields because as a child I had many problems with my body. In working with children with special needs, I am especially concerned to create the kind of trauma and pain-free learning experiences that I would have wished for myself as a child.

I am a certified Feldenkrais Method practitioner, with additional certification in Theory and Techniques from Anat Baniel Method for Children (ABM), taught by Nancy Aberle, and have an MA in Dance Pedagogy from the Theatre Academy of Finland in Helsinki. www.movetolearn.com / www.feldenkraisforkids.com
