“When I began mentoring with Ellen I was an experienced practitioner, but I wasn’t a teacher. I was confident in my hands-on abilities, but I didn’t truly understand what made a lesson a lesson. My work with Ellen was transformational. I began as a skilled body worker, and effortlessly grew into a confident Feldenkrais practitioner. I know what questions to ask and I have concrete strategies for meeting my client’s needs. Mentoring with Ellen is an investment in yourself that you can’t afford not to make.
–Bridget Quebodeaux, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitionercm, Los Angeles.
“Ellen is a fantastic mentor. With each session I learned a new lesson structure and was able to take it home with me and use it with my clients.”
–Betsy Ingalls, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitionercm, Santa Barbara.
“Mentoring with Ellen during and after my Feldenkrais training was extremely helpful. Ellen is a wonderful teacher. She is patient and supportive and has the ability to clarify complex concepts and make them understandable. I came out of each meeting feeling that I had gained a better understanding of our complex method, and I learned things that I could immediately put to use.”
— Irene Bowers, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitionercm, Los Angeles.
