Bujinkan Taijutsu & Feldenkrais VCD by Doron Navon (Preowned)

Doron Navon went to Japan 1969 to study Judo. By coincidence he met both Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi and Professor Moshe Feldenkrais. Doron trained extremely hard for six years with Hatsumi Sensei, unfil he left home to Israel in 1975.

When he went home to Israel he was in such bad condition from all injuries he got from his martial arts training that he a very hard time getting out of the bed. During the next 10 years he learned the system of Professor Feldenkrais who was an engineer, physicist, inventor, martial artist and student of human development. Soon Doron was able to start practicing Bujinkan Taijutsu again. By the mid 80's and 90's he was considered a Japanese Shihan.

He was at the top in Buinkan, one of the best. This video is one of the last bujinkan seminars he did (march 1994). Today he has retired from active Bujinkan training, and is now devoting full time to the Feldenkrais method.

TAIJUTSU: Tailutsu is the unarmed combat method of Buiinkan Budo Taijutsu, wich is a Japanese martial art with a several hundred year tradition.

FELDENKRAIS: Feldenkrais is divided in two major groups.

AWARENESS THROUGH MOVEMENT (ATM) lessons, the FELDENKRAIS practitioner verbally guides you through a sequence of movements: sitting or lying on the floor, standing or sitting in a chair.

You discover how you do the movements and notice the quality of changes in your body.

You learn to relax and to abandon habitual patterns. Through the subtle ATM movements, you develop awareness, flexibility and coordination. You experience relaxation and a sense of release.

FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION: is a one-to-one learning process, the movements are communicated through slow, gentle touch. Comfortably clothed, you lie or sit on a low padded table. or you may be standing, walking, sitting in a chair, or in other various positions. The practitioner guides you through a series of precise movements that alter habitual patterns and provide new learning directly to the neuromuscular system.

FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION is especially useful for people who want to learn to overcome limitations brought on by stress, misuse, accident, or illness. It is equally beneficial for people who want to perform and feel better physically and mentally.
