“I had Feldenkrais lessons from Pingel for several years. She is a very competent and creative teacher and I always left her classes feeling balanced and more in tune with my body. I have a history of broken legs and after an accident, which left me with a head injury and a broken shoulder and hip, it was through Feldenkrais that I learnt how to walk better without pain. I highly recommend Pingel as a Feldenkrais practitioner.”
In her individual guidance in Feldenkrais, Pingel touches me at my core, where it matters.
Through her patience and calm subtle instructions, her questions, comments and insight about movements, I rediscover my body and also my mental state.
It's an adventure I love to let Pingel take me on.
I have received Feldenkrais classes from Pingel for a long time and she made me fall in love with it.
She creates a safe space where I can calm down and listen to my body, without judgment. During the classes, I could experience a deep state of release which allowed me to be sensitive.
The lighting, the smell, the temperature of the room, the sound of her voice, the movements chosen, and the timing of the class, are all taken care of to allow this deep level of learning.
I highly suggest her classes!
I was looking for a retreat for a time to reflect and to connect.
I chose this retreat for the location in Spain and the instructors were very insightful, creative, and genuine.
This retreat gave me greater insight into the sources of my challenges and that of my partner, as well as how patterns are formed and how to choose new ways of relating to myself and my partner.
The teachers were incredible, the food was delicious and healthy. The sessions were designed well.
I had been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the lower back and did not want to take painkillers.
I had also lost my natural enthusiasm.
I googled the words 'freeze' because I felt stuck and 'flow' because that is what I felt I needed, and up came the title 'from freeze to flow.'
I am a great believer in synchronicity.
I learned that pain need not be painful, that the body is a microcosm where all parts have a place and must be recognized and allowed to play the part they were made for.
I learned the importance of really listening to the body so that it does not need to shout through chronic pain. I also learned that to be healthy, the body needs every type of movement.
I would like others to know that whatever they are looking for, they will find what they need if they open their eyes, ears, and hearts and pick up the signs.
This retreat is a lifestyle, not just dance therapy. Every aspect of life there has a message.
