Feldenkrais session by Yael Davids in the exhibition

Béatrice Balcou invites Yael Davids to give a Feldenkrais lesson in the exhibition.

The Feldenkrais Method is a system of body movement that aimed at improving human functioning by increasing self-awareness through movement.

// Biography

Yael Davids (1968) examines the capacities in which the body operates as a documentary vessel: as much a registry of the present, intrinsically connected to collective heritage and political narratives, as it is a receptacle in which a private biography is compacted and a finite, unique voice is contoured. By extending the research to the institutional framework of pedagogy, the forthcoming phase in the trajectory places emphasis on locating a connection between established systems of pedagogy and hermeneutic methods of knowledge production. Here, the question posed is how to integrate (self-)awareness around limitations within a pedagogical context and how can both student and teacher reorientate the value placed on limitations? How can the perceived limitation acquire a certain legibility that like a compass may reveal an alternative route towards (self-)understanding?

Davids studied visual arts at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam, sculpture at the Pratt Institute in New York and choreography and dance education at the Remscheid Akademie in Remscheid. Education for Feldenkrais practitioner she achieved at International Feldenkrais training edcuation, Neve-Shalom, Istituto di formazione Feldenkrais, Feldenkrais - Awareness Through Movement, Milano.Amsterdam International Feldenkrais® Teacher Training.
