Kathryn Hume-Cook, Dedicated to excellence
Certified FELDENKRAIS© Practitioner, Certified FELDENKRAIS© Trainer
Born 1968 in Melbourne, Australia, I have been a Feldenkrais teacher since 1999. Based in Hamburg, Germany, I teach full-time, both in my own practice as well as within Feldenkrais Professional Training Programs. I am passionate about learning and movement and this wonderful method never ceases to fascinate me as a means for growth and personal development.
Join me for classes, seminars, Advanced Trainings or Training segments world-wide. I teach on-line workshops and Miniworkshops in English and German, day-long seminars and week-long retreats, as well as Advanced seminars in various countries. You can schedule individual Functional Integration lessons with me when I am in Hamburg, or wherever you might run into me. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Functional Integration for practitioners and students
Individual lessons for growth and deeper personal understanding
No matter how many years we work as Feldenkrais practitioners ourselves, we remain human beings subject to all the ins and outs of life. Our journey continues with new discoveries and set-backs.
Receiving FI lessons is an integral part of our ongoing practice and development, both as practitioners and as human beings. It can help to gain new perspective, remind oursleves of our ability to self-regulate and re-find the elusive obvious. I will address your individual needs specifically and sensitively and use my competence and experience to offer the best possible framework for your lesson. Receiving a series of lessons on consecutive days can also be a deeply rewarding experience.

As most of my classes for the public are taught in German, especially those in person, you will find these offers on the German version of my webpage. Miniworkshops, Retreats on Sylt, weekend Seminars in Hamburg or packages of evening clases online are all great opportunities to embrace possibility and discover how listening to yourself through movement can change your life. It is not a problem if your German speaking skills are basic. As long as you can follow most of the instructions you will be fine, and I can help you out if needs be.

As an individual, you can arrange consultations with me in order to work through questions about your practice - be they in terms of content, business skills or other.

Ask questions about resources or suggestions for following up on significant learning moments for yourself. Prepare a particular lesson with my help. Private coaching can be done online or at my studio in Hamburg and you can choose between a one hour session or a three hour intensive.
