As the parent of a child with special needs, I was overwhelmed with appointments and opinions. Traditional therapies began to feel like a cycle of scrutiny followed by a prescription to repeat movements that my son was not yet able to achieve independently. Although the medical teams were well-intentioned, their focus on what remained just outside of my son's ability resulted in extreme frustration for both of us.  Through Kathleen, we learned that forcing a child into the next developmental step was not the only way.  Instead, she awakened my son's awareness of his next developmental step so he could choose to take it. Not only was it more efficient in moving his development forward, the positive impact on his confidence was remarkable.

Kathleen has been described as a "child whisperer," or a "miracle-worker." Both have held true through our experience with her; she is solidly a master at her craft.

“Whee how lovely it is to float up the stairs, be able to turn my head almost like a snowy owl, walk almost gliding and twirl around myself. Years disappear and a sense of quiet well being ensues. Can’t beat that. Wonderful classes with Kathleen is all one needs to do. Thank you!”

"I had frozen shoulder. At one point I could only raise my arm about 40 degrees. I went through traditional rehabilitation and gained some movement. But after working with, Kathleen I am now able to raise it to 180 degrees. But even more importantly, Feldenkrais has changed the way that I live my life. It changed the way that I move through life, figuratively, and literally. It's not necessarily a "quick fix", but it offers the potential for lifetime change.

I encourage people not to wait for an injury or age related problem. Kathleen & Feldenkrais can definitely help prevent an injury & many of these problems." - MaryAnn Moreno

"I have been a private client of Kathleen since June 1, 2003. I was in an automobile accident in September, 2006 which left me with a stroke on my right side. My brain does not send signals to my right arm. I wear an AFO leg brace on my right foot and lower leg. I use a wheelchair and a quad cane.

I go to Kathleen once a week. She is a miracle worker. She always listens to what my issues are and works to gently relieve my symptoms. Kathleen is a dedicated and caring person. I always feel much better after seeing her. She concentrates on my back, neck, face, chest, legs, and feet." - Carol Kopek

"Kathleen Dunne is a passionate, knowledgeable and articulate instructor of the Feldenkrais method. I have found each class or workshop to be a unique and exciting opportunity for the improvement of my movement pattern as well as the sharpening my mental well-being. As a result of attending these life changing classes, I move with far less pain or effort and enjoy a much better quality of life. Improvement and results continue with each class." - Sandy K.

My experience with Feldenkrais and Kathleen Dunne began 12 years ago. When I started I was not able to stand, sit, lay on my back or stomach, walk much or do any kind of physical exercise. My daughter had heard of Feldenkrais and Kathleen, and suggested that I try it.

I did, and it was one of the best things I have ever done. I went to a one on one session at first, and then started classes as well. From the beginning, I felt such a difference in my physical capabilities and a renewal of hope for the future.

Kathleen is a wonderful, gifted teacher, and I highly recommend her and the Feldenkrais experience to you. - Mary Epstein

I came to Kathleen 8 years ago with severe arthritis and loss of mobility and balance. I was falling a lot. The work has helped me regain my equilibrium and now I seldom fall. Kathleen has also worked with me before and after several orthopedic surgeries and she helped me recover my mobility quickly and wonderfully. - Jeanne Graham
