Bones For LifeAuthor: Ruthy AlonDescription: 24 DVDs ripped to MP4 , 1 PDF of the index guide.I like Ruthy’s work a lot. The audio on the first couple is a little hard to track,  but it gets better. She has some interesting practices on learning to feel your bones using a long cloth wrap. There was an older version of this same series on here, but it was rather large at 28 gigabytes. This one is about 8 GB and is much easier to store on a phone or tablet.Bones For LifeThe Movement Intelligence of Bone Strength and Weight-Bearing Posture Based on Dr. Feldenkrais’ approach to somatic learning Develop harmonious coordinationEmpower lively & dynamic gaitTrain in bone building walking in rhythmReach Quality of natural fitness at any ageRestore resourcefulness of equilibrium & stabilityAlign posture in the body language of self confidenceA 24-disk DVD set of the full updated Bones for Life program recorded in New York in 2007.Sponsored by the Feldenkrais Institute.This is Ruthy’s last documented presentation of the basic Bones for Life program in the United States.Your bones are as reliable as your posture is able to sustain your body weight in an efficient alignment.Your bones are as strong as your activity is dynamic and able to cope with challenges that demand strength.Your bones are as healthy as Nature meant, if your movements are natural and all your body parts are harmoniously coordinated.Through the simple, effective movement processes of the sixty-hour Bones For Life program, you will learn gradually and safely how to:* Stimulate your bone strength and experience the biological optimism of a reliable skeleton* Coordinate a springy and dynamic walk* Align your posture into safe weight-bearing uprightness* Develop your skill of restoring equilibrium* Enhance the pleasure of movingThe Bones For Life program addresses the functional aspect of movement skill involved in withstanding such a load by offering a series of movement processes that improve the quality of body coordination. The emphasis of the program is on organizing the skeleton into a safe weight-bearing posture to sustain springy pulsations of force-the natural code for bone strength and suppleness. Bones for Life is based on the teachings of Moshe Feldenkrais for the re-education of movement habits. Awakening the self to improve the quality of moving is achieved through gradual experience of unused options. The learning is geared to the harmonious integration of all body parts in functioning, integration being the central characteristic of any organism. The suggested ways of moving are explored in the perspective of the reciprocal coordination of all body parts. The movement configurations in the Bones for Life program are modeled after the primal patterns of locomotion in nature. The efficiency of these patterns has been proved throughout millions of years of evolution. These basic patterns of walking are re-learned in the program in greenhouse conditions of safe and gradual practice that are adaptable to individual pace and ability. Simple tools facilitate the development of controlled resistance to pressure, like using a strip of cloth as a harness, pushing a wall, lifting weights, or learning safe ways of falling. objective digital bone density measurements of people who regularly practice the program show meaningful improvement in many cases. On a subjective level, participants find joy in their practice and they are more satisfied with their competence in moving. The increased confidence in a more reliable skeleton inspires a sensation of biological optimism. 24 DVDs with index sheets.The web site for this material is at:http://www.bonesforlife.com
