Mind Body Study with Mia Segal

I invite you to experience my Feldenkrais Method® mentors

It was my desire, after graduating from my Feldenkrais® Training to continue my education with Mia Segal, Dr. Feldenkrais' first assistant. While my overall focus and intent in teaching riding has remained the same, Mia and Leora have greatly influenced my manner of teaching and the quality of my hands-on work by their clear simple presentation of Dr. Feldenkrais' method.

It is my pleasure to introduce you to these two marvelous teachers and invite you to personally experience their work.

It seems like a simple thing – riding an accurate circle. But sometimes the simple things aren’t so easy and in our training they can easily get overlooked. However riding accurate circles in your dressage test can really make a difference to your score especially at the lower levels. Twenty and ten meter circle becomes much more obvious when ridden poorly since there is a lot of time for the judge to observe how accurately you are riding.

Riding through the Masai Mara, Kenya on Horseback

Fording the river. There had been rain for the last two weeks even though this was supposed to be the dry season.
As dawn arrives mid-safari we head out for the “long day”, a ride of over 40km. Our camp moves from one side of the high plains to the other. The entire 8-day ride – over 250 km (150 miles) is without fences, gates or boarders other than river crossings. Although it was supposed to be the dry season, rain had come early to the Masai Mara and it is lush and green, as I would imagine of Ireland. The river crossings create detours for the vehicles as a horseback safari of 11 guests and over 14 crew move from one camp to another every 2 days. We stayed at 4 different campsites, made three complete moves with horses, kitchen (whip cream topped deserts and yoghurt dressed the breakfast table), tents, vehicles and dog over the course of 9 days in February 2010.
