“I have worked with Joyce for many years, coming to see her as needed. She brings into each session a deep intellectual curiosity along with a broad background of training and skills. These, combined with her creativity, intuition, acceptance and kindness provide a very safe environment, one that always allows for the possibility of change. During each session, Joyce offers her awareness and understanding of what is happening in my body, and what directions we might explore. And then through movement and her gentle and skillful touch, my own awareness deepens throughout the session, and my body seems to naturally find its way to healing.”

“I am very sensitive to any kind of body work. Feldenkrais® very gently reminds me that if I let go and stop trying to hold myself together, my body remembers how to move comfortably again. The sessions go to a deep level where I can feel my body balance itself – without pain. Working toward better health with Joyce continues to change my life.”
~S.O., writer
“The best therapy I can provide for some of my clients is to integrate my work with the work Joyce does. Clients tell me that with Feldenkrais, they are more fully in their bodies, and they appreciate how this supports their sensing, processing and releasing of emotional issues.”
~S.N., psychologist
“Imagine being able to imagine frozen joints into moving fluidly. In a Feldenkrais session, Joyce Gudger enabled me to do just that. My scapula were frozen; she taught me how to bring my attention to long-neglected parts of my upper back and visualize them moving; and my brain remembered how. It was quite an amazing experience, and one that left me feeling a lot more comfortable.”

“Doing Feldenkrais frees up my body, which frees up my creative process. Sensing gravity and my skeleton changes my perceptions in general.”
