About this product

Product Information

Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais is best kwn for pioneering the somatic therapy that bears his name. Less well kwn is that he was also one of the earliest European practitioners of the martial art of judo and wrote a number of influential texts on the subject. Primary among these is Higher Judo, first published in 1952 and w reprinted with a new foreword that offers useful context and elaborates on Feldenkrais' comprehensive--and still timely--approach to the martial art and to the body. Judo was a natural choice for Feldenkrais's fascination with body/mind exploration and how to promote optimal functioning through awareness. In Higher Judo, he presents judo as the art of using all parts of the body to promote general health, and as part of the basic culture of the body. He reveals judo's potential for creating a sense of rhythm of movement and improving mental and physical coordination. Higher Judo covers specific movements and positions--the astride position, the six o'clock approach, falling techniques--in both the text and the clear line drawings. Even more importantly, it shows how such groundwork can help practitioners develop their mental and physical awareness to their full potential.

Author Biography
Moshe Feldenkrais (1904-1984) was a distinguished scientist, physicist, and engineer. After suffering a crippling injury, he began an intense study of the relationship between bodily movement and healing that culminated in the Feldenkrais Method(R). Judo master Gunji Koizumi was the founder of the Budokai and a pioneer of judo in Europe. Michel Brousse, a seventh-degree black belt, teaches the cultural history of sport and the didactics of judo at Bordeaux University in France. He is the author of numerous books and articles on these subjects. A former member of the French national judo team, he currently serves as Research Director of the International Judo Federation. Dennis Leri is one of Moshe Feldenkrais's original American students, with more than thirty years of experience teaching the Feldenkrais Method(R) and training new practitioners. His martial arts practice includes boxing, aikido, Chen-style T'ai Chi, and Lan Shou Kung Fu. Moti Nativ is a Feldenkrais Method(R) practitioner and martial artist. He leads the Bujinkan Shiki (Awareness) Dojo with branches throughout Israel and holds seminars in Israel, the U.S., Europe, and Japan.
