THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE AEQ METHOD
MOTION IN THE CENTRE OF THE BODY HAS TO BE EFFICIENT
We are learning from the birth on how to engage muscles correctly and democratically when moving. A democratic application of a muscle means that a muscle works in harmony with other muscles in a move…
LET’S LEARN HOW TO CHANGE OUR MOVEMENT PATTERNS
Think about how you would walk if a bee stung you on your left foot. Would you burden both legs the same or would you ‘’take care’’ of your left leg by overburdening the right? Injury always influences established…
PANDICULATION
The AEQ method® is characterized by pandiculation, which restores the feeling of muscle control and improves a certain movement pattern. Pandiculation is an active approach to solving the problem…
AEQ EDUCATION
AEQ education is a process that broadens the horizons of our consciousness and free will. Moshe Feldenkrais is considered the pioneer of clinical somatics, which was substantiated and used by Elsa Gindler, F. Mathias Alexander…
LEARNING THROUGH AEQ EXERCISES
Failure does not exist if you have learned from your mistakes and improved yourself. Keep that in mind, and you will achieve more. In fact, you will achieve everything that is realistically achievable if you…
AEQ EXERCISES
With AEQ exercises, we can improve the mind-body connection, the feeling, and control of the muscles, and look for the easiest way possible to perform the exercise’s movements. Pain and movement limitations…
Active AEQ learning sessions
With learning AEQ method, we eliminate sensory-motor amnesia and learn to guide body movements consciously. When done correctly, we learn to detect feelings during movement to such a degree that it…
INTEGRITY AND CONSCIOUSNESS
A person without consciousness would be like a robot: perfect in his movement, nor would he make too much or too little movement in unconditional goal orientation. He would feel no emotion and feeling and would be carefully protected…
WHAT IS SENSORY-MOTOR AMNESIA?
The AEQ method is an activity expanding the range of volitional consciousness. This is not to be confused with conditioning, which is a bodily procedure imposed upon a subject by external manipulations.
REFLEX PATTERNS
Thomas Hanna recognized and defined three general reflex patterns, which are an adaptation of the body to stress. Anyone can recognize and feel them. But even though they are characteristic for humans, it doesn’t…
CHANGING THE MIND
Conventional approaches toward rectifying mistakes in our body felt as chronic pain, movement limitation, or inefficient movement derive from the body’s structure and how muscle and body processes work.
GREEN LIGHT REFLEX
The body takes over the posture of a soldier, ready for action and change. The back arches, the buttocks, hind thighs, and hips tense up, the shoulders pull back, the head raises. Common problems caused by the green…
RED LIGHT REFLEX
It serves as a defense against sudden change or danger. In the event of a sudden loud bang or rumble, the front of the body’s muscles is activated and contracted. The abdominal muscle shortens, and the chest muscles tense…
TRAUMA REFLEX AND INJURIES
Injuries can be caused by a blow or a fall. When a blow is anticipated, we instinctively turn away from it, which leads to getting hit on the side of our body. Those muscles then reflexively contract so that they form a shield.
THE MAIN CAUSE OF STIFFNESS AND CHRONIC PAIN
The key to understanding the causes of chronic pain in our muscles and joints lies within our proprioception, which is being aware of movement, and feeling ourselves. Muscles and most tissues in the body…
