I had chronic backache since my twenties and my quest to ease the condition led me to Sa Chien. Initially, I just wanted to get quick fixes for my pain and would just ask for private sessions. As Sa Chien shared more about the philosophy and principles about Feldenkrais Method, I started to attend weekly classes.
I learnt that the aim was not to ‘fix’ the pain but to get the mind and body connection. With awareness, my body ‘rewires’, adjusts and releases the tension that causes tightness and pain sensations.
Nowadays, I am able to move with greater ease and easily overcome any physical limitations of stiffness due to too much standing or walking with some simple movements.
I am inspired by Sa Chien’s vision to pioneer the FIC Program in Singapore and the region. The idea of empowering people with skills to help themselves sparked my desire to join the team in the work.
I hope to contribute as a support for the administrative and operations aspects of the programs.
