Nicky Tompkins, of Queenstown, also a practitioner of the method, said the theme of Sunday's workshop was "The Foot in Dynamic Movement".
"Our feet are our base of support and how we contact the ground ... they are the key to how we move.
"That is important for all of us, but particularly if you're a runner, an athlete, a dancer or a golfer.
"Anybody who wants to run, jump, walk or dance better should come along to this workshop."
The Feldenkrais Method was developed by Dr Moshe Feldenkrais, a Ukrainian-born nuclear physicist and a judo master who was credited with introducing the sport to the western world.
However, a chronic knee injury prompted him to apply his knowledge of physics, body mechanics, neurology, learning theory and psychology to human function and maturation.
His work resulted in the development of the Feldenkrais Method, described as a unique synthesis of science and aesthetics.
Ms Tompkins said the method was "not exercise", but was movement which addressed the nervous system, designed to get the best out of a person's "structure".
While it was ideal for any sportsperson, it also helped people who had recurring or difficult injuries or for people who were not overly mobile.
"Anybody can do it. Anybody of any age or any level of fitness.
"It's not exercise, it's movement and most of it is done lying down ... we take away gravity."
The Queenstown workshop will be held from 10am to 4.30pm on Sunday in the MacTodd building on Church St.
The cost was $120 per person, with registrations available by emailing feldenkraisqt@xtra.co.nz.
