A Nonne "Tale"......


I haven't been very present on this page for a while, so perhaps about time to post a few lines...

Let me tell you how it is to work with "old sisters"... I was recently asked to do some Feldenkrais in an old peoples home for retreated nonnes! Some of them are 100 years old, but that is absolutely no obstacle to keep learning - and laughing !!

To help them feel their pelvis and spine (necessary for bending down or reaching up, of course...) I suggested that they imagined having a tale attached to their talebone, - a tale that could move up or downwards - like a dog when happy or sad.
THAT was VERY funny for them to imagine, some of them (especially Jeanne who is 101!) giggled so much that we almost couldn't finish the session...hahaha.... that's what nonne-humour is about.... They are wonderful!
