Most Feldenkrais practitioners are certain that the Feldenkrais Method is effective based on their own experience in Awareness through Movement and Functional Integration as well as feedback from their clients. Given this kind of personal experience, most Feldenkrais teachers would like the Feldenkrais Method to be more widely recognized in their society. They want Feldenkrais to be taught in schools, in university programs, for sports teams, in rehabilitation clinics and other institutions.
