Welcome! My name is Patricia Wahl and I am Certified ABM Neuromovement Practitioner and a Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner. I offer brain-based movement lessons, for adults and children, to help improve function and action.

I have a passion for empowering others to harness the power of their brain to improve and create new possibilities their movement and overall feeling. I have helped people of all ages to improve their posture and balance, decrease chronic pain & stress, improve body awareness and proprioception, as well as improve mobility and flexibility.

It is truly exciting to see my clients get back to doing what they love, or gain a new skill! Using the power of neuroplasticy in my movement lessons, students are able to make long-lasting change, as they learn about better movement choices for improved self-use.

Teaching therapeutic and awareness-based exercise for 30 years, I've worked as a licensed physical therapist assistant in acute and sub-acute care units at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, as well as outpatient centers and in-home physical therapy in Manhattan, New York. Interest in holistic health approaches led me to studies in yoga and meditation, gaining a 500 hour teaching certificate. While residing in Manhattan, I taught private clients mindful movement and post-rehab exercise.

​

With a strong desire to learn more about prevention, treatment and the sources of chronic pain, I gained my Feldenkrais Practitioner Certification with the New York City Feldenkrais Method Professional Training Program, directed by David Zemach-Bersin, in Manhattan, NY. More recently, I earned an ABM Neuromovement Certification, led by Sharon Oliensis, in Brooklyn, NY, and I am currently in the Children's Mastery Program, in Durham, NC.

I continue to be fascinated by the connection between mind and body, and by our lifelong potential for learning, growth and improvement—at any age.
