Explore the benefits of this innovative technique

The Feldenkrais Method is a somatic education approach that enhances body awareness and movement quality. By encouraging self-discovery, it helps individuals improve their posture, flexibility, and range of motion.

Practice includes gentle movements, verbal cues, and mindfulness, aimed at alleviating pain and tension. Sessions can be done individually or in small groups, catering to every level of physical ability.

At Live Well Durango Wellness Collective, Annika offers Feldenkrais sessions on Fridays. To learn more about the Feldenkrais Method, visit durangofeldenkrais.com

The Feldenkrais Method works by retraining your nervous system, and that takes repetition. With each session, new movement patterns become more familiar, old habits have less of a grip, and the changes you feel in the studio start showing up in daily life - on the trail, at your desk, getting out of bed in the morning. 

Why a series: 

  • Awareness developed in sessions carries into daily life
  • Discoveries compound into lasting change
  • Old habits lose their grip

What Our Clients Say

Real experiences, real transformations

Ashley Delehunt
Joanna's dance classes have the best music that makes you want to move your body. The vibe is uplifting, and it's a great workout without feeling like you are working out. She sets an environment where everyone is welcome and encouraged to dance and express themselves. 10/10 recommend her dance + strength class and the hip hop class, so much fun!!!

I have gone to several massage therapists over the years, whether in Scottsdale or on vacation somewhere or in Durango. Without a doubt, Joanna, is by far the best massage therapist. Any concerns are heard and addressed. The room is soothing allowing for a time to relax and enjoy. Joanna has been blessed with the gift of healing touch. If I could go weekly, I would.

Joanna was fabulous! I was quite overdue for a massage but she knew just the right amount of pressure to provide and was very in tune w my body (even mentioned an old injury I was unaware of) This was one truly one of the best, if not the best, massages I have ever had. I will be back!

I am quite literally obsessed with Joanna's dance and strength classes. I would have never guessed at the age of 40 that I'd be doing hip-hop style dance classes AND loving them! Moving my body in that way is so fun, and so empowering. Thank you for bringing this beautiful movement back into my life ❤️

Joanna is incredible! There are not enough words to suffice the joy she brings to a dance class, the calm and nurture she brings to a massage, or the overall loving presence she has. I highly recommend Live Well Durango for all things self care. Treat yourself, dance more and relax more.

I tell everyone I know to come to the LivinIT Dance & Strength class with Joanna on Tuesdays. The dance half is super fun and gets your heart rate up, while still being beginner friendly. (Trust me, I am no dancer!) And then the strength training is definitely a work-out, but still totally customizable to your individual level. You can feel yourself getting stronger each week! Plus, the regular attendees are wholly welcoming and supportive. The entire class is fantastic! You should 100% come try it out!!
