Even at Age 70, We Can Learn New Moves in Enjoyable Ways!

Check out this video about a Chinese grandmother who took up hip hop dancing and look how fluid it's made her movement.  Moshe Feldenkrais said  that we act according to our "self-image."  You'll notice that this woman's attraction to the music, the freedom, and even the clothing from hip hop culture are inspiring her to adopt a new self-image which includes empowerment and amazing movement for someone her age.  I encourage you to watch the short video and to use your imagination the next time you feel stuck with a movement challenge to assist yourself in creating a self-image that will make whatever you're doing easier.  To see the video CLICK HERE.
