what people are saying about the creative body

Through my lessons with Lavinia I learned to overcome the obstacles I was having playing music and started on a path of realizing potentials that I didn’t even know existed. Barry Benjamin

Arthritis in my hip nearly ended my career. Lavinia taught me how to reduce my pain and play even better than before. Life without Feldenkrais is not living. Gloria Carter

Over 55 National Tennis Champion

Working with Lavinia has helped me tremendously. I have learned to decrease my low back and shoulder discomfort. Learning to use my mind’s eye to increase my awareness is even more valuable. I feel much more integrated – physically, mentally and spiritually. Debbie Lawler

My Theory of Everything

by Lavinia Plonka | Feb 10, 2019 | Humor/CosmiComedy

There is a Chinese belief called the Red Thread, or the Red String. The gods tie a red string that connects a person to a destiny, usually in the form of a soulmate. No matter what happens, the string can be pulled, tangled, knotted, but it never breaks. All of us are connected via a complex tapestry of these threads.

Let The Sock Go!

by Lavinia Plonka | Feb 5, 2019 | Humor/CosmiComedy, The Creative Body

For twenty five years, at least twice a week, I put on white face as a professional mime, and then “set” the make-up by smacking myself all over the face with a sock filled with cornstarch. It gave my whiteface a kind of china doll look, smooth, porcelain like, no pores, no greasy dribble. Whiteface was a love/hate relationship: there was romance and fantasy upon donning the white mask, as well as an embarrassing corniness in the cliché of the white faced mime. I stopped performing regularly in 1999, and almost all concerts after that did not involve whiteface And yet, I held on to the sock.
