I am available for individual or group Feldenkrais, Tai Chi, yoga, or fitness instructions, booked community acupuncture offers, or wellness education workshops.
I also teach Feldenkrais classes on Fridays at 7-8pm at Mudita Yoga Studio at the Healing Center Building. Feldenkrais is a somatic movement practice which helps to improve posture, coordination, balance, and create greater ease in and efficient movement throughout the whole body.
MY UKRAINE VOLUNTEER WORK
Since the full scale invasion of Russia’s war on Ukraine I have put my rage into fundraising and community organizing. With the support of many people I was able to fundraise $80K in the first 4 months of invasion. All of that money went directly to Ukraine mutual aid and relief organizations.
Additionally I traveled to Ukraine for three months this and last year while the war was happening to volunteer as an acupuncturist at the Ukraine Lisova Polyana VA Rehabilitation Center for psychological trauma and brain injuries in Kyiv ,Ukraine (July - September 2022, and August-October 2023.)
Over that time I was able to provide treatment to over 300 wounded soldiers, seeing 15 to 25 patients daily. Acupuncture helped them to sleep better, improved their cognitive function, and reduced many of their PTSD symptoms. (Instagram @ukrainewellnesslisova)
Please support Ukraine Wellness Fund which funds local Ukrainian acupuncturists who volunteer to work with soldiers returning from war. Please go to this link below if you would like to support this effort. These practitioners see 30 plus people a day, and they deserve our support and recognition.
