Small friendly classes, great teachers and comfortable safe space. Feldendkrais for all, gentle movement that structures, supports and brings awareness to move in a greater, more flexible manner. Margaret is an excellent teacher, helps you to fine tune your body with ease. Dance Class and Ukulele, great teachers, fun learning environment, great for your body and brain, keeps both active in a fit and fun way. All set in lovely surroundings, a garden to sit in, a 10 minute walk from Newtown Station. Friendly and caring staff.
Safe space, great classes, welcoming staff, information source.
A quiet women’s space in the busyness of Newtown is invaluable to my wellbeing.
Excellent teachers, excellent location. Meeting new and interesting women. Feldenkrais classes are very beneficial as well as fun.
It has really made a difference in my health and mental wellbeing coming to these classes. They are friendly and welcoming with excellent teachers and they are affordable. I particularly get a lot from the Feldenkrais with Margaret because it has improved my flexibility and strength.
Companionship.
Social, happy, and enjoy.
Keeping fit physically and mentally. Making new friends.
Physical and emotional health. Working with a great group of women. I came with my sister to give her courage to walk through the door. I can’t see my life without it anymore.
Friendship, positiveness; learning skills; broaden your outlook.
Friendship, relaxation, meeting new people, and learning new challenging things.
Meeting with other friendly women. Coming to Feldenkrais and New Moves and connecting with my body. A calm quiet time for energetic movement. I love the way we are told we are all beautiful and we look beautiful.
It makes me get up and go and the company is great.
Exercise – fun and laughter; getting to know new people.
Hopefully to increase my general fitness and balance.
Get out of the house and the shops. Doing new activities, making friends. Has led to outings other than strictly OWN.
I enjoy coming here.
It stimulates my mind and body. The friendships are invaluable.
Exercise, fun, social and improve my health and brain.
Enjoyable workout in Line Dancing; enjoyable learning in ukulele; socialising; an uplifting time!
