LEARN FROM THE GREATS

 Teachers are the architects of movement culture, past and present. In ancient times, they were not merely instructors, but philosophers of the body: from the Delsartes and Moshe Feldenkrais who mapped motion as a mirror of the soul, to the samurai masters, Greek gymnosophists, and Renaissance anatomists who understood movement as a form of divine intelligence. These teachers saw the body as scripture, every gesture a language of truth. In the modern era, teachers like Ido Portal, Roye Gold, and others continue this lineage not by inventing something new, but by remembering something ancient. They awaken what civilization has forgotten: that teaching movement is teaching awareness, adaptability, and freedom. A true movement teacher doesn’t just correct posture; they liberate potential. They remind us that the greatest classroom is the human body itself, and that to move with consciousness is to return to our original wisdom.

ROYE GOLD

A big part of Movement is connecting with others. It speeds up your growth in many ways as you share a journey with others and it also keeps you accountable.

IDO PORTAL

 

Starting from an early age in Traditional Martial Arts I was always obsessed with the physical.

Later on, at 15 I met the Afro-Brazilian Capoeira, a meeting that sent me on a lifetime journey leading to the realization that I don't just love Martial Arts or Strength or this or that, but I am actually obsessed with... Movement.

That epiphany got me to embark on a journey to study from 'Movement Teachers'. After countless searches, I could not find anyone who HONESTLY could represent that title, an

Historic Movement Teachers

Learning from the best in history that pioneered proper movement the way we know it today

Moshe Feldenkrais

Moshe Feldenkrais was not just a teacher of movement. He was a teacher of awareness. A physicist, engineer, and judo master, he fused science with somatic intuition to unlock a new understanding of human potential. Feldenkrais believed that movement was the foundation of thought, emotion, and identity — that how we move is how we live. I learned many things form reading his work and consider him a great teacher of mine.

Ida Rolf

Studying her words has reshaped how I see movement itself: not as exercise, but as the ongoing act of finding balance within the field of gravity. Her insights taught me that being a better mover isn’t about flexibility or strength — it’s about integrity, connection, and allowing the body to remember its natural order. Ida Rolf showed that when structure aligns with intention, movement becomes effortless, consciousness expands, and the human being stands taller in every sense of the word. 

Elsa Gindler

Through her gentle yet radical approach to “somatic re-education,” she revealed that movement is not about performance, but presence. Gindler guided me to listen to the body’s quiet intelligence, to release effort, and to rediscover natural coordination through consciousness. She reminds me that the simplest acts (breathing, standing, reaching) can become a gateway to wholeness when done with complete awareness.
