Hey there!

My name is Jeffrey Schwinghammer.

I'm a Feldenkrais® teacher and filmmaker.

When I was younger, I got myself into trouble. In grade school, I would tense up and shy away from the other kids. I tightened my chest, closed up throat and casted my eyes down. My voice would crack and go hoarse from the immense tension I held there.

I didn't need enemies, I had a wildly anxious mind that held up massive billboards. All with the same message: fear.

For years, I managed to get by... until I couldn't. I did some serious work and sought out help. I've been on a mission to rewire my nervous system so I can pursue my dream of doing meaningful work and have a family.

My beacon of light has been the Feldenkrais Method®. This work has been nonstop mind+body opening for me and I want to share that with you.

I offer online courses (coming soon) and in-person 1:1 sessions in Central Minnesota. 

If you're not interested in learning and being curious, this is not the right place for you!

I am the director of the upcoming documentary on the Feldenkrais Method. Our goal is to give audiences an in-depth look into the journey of a Feldenkrais student.
