About Maggie Slattery
Maggie Slattery was working as an actor in San Francisco when she commenced study of the Feldenkrais Method (1978) as part of her research to free her movement from the constraints of her personal history. The revolution in her experience of her body/self, led inevitably to taking professional training in the Feldenkrais Method (San Rafael, California 1984-1987).
Maggie has continued her personal practice of the Method as integral to her life; She's run a professional private practice (hands-on) for 20 years, and has worked in a great variety of teaching settings, including tertiary dance and music faculties, with dance companies, and in Feldenkrais Training Programs as an assistant trainer. She has a great love for the work, enduring wonder at its scope and where it sits in relationship to Art, Science and Ordinary Life; and of late a developing engagement in and interest for the transposition of the work into other domains, particularly those involving music, design, and ESD (Ecologically Sustainable Development).
