Lisbon 3

Apply now

Lisbon

Lisbon, Europe’s sunniest capital with 239 sunny days annually, boasts a Mediterranean climate, unique light, white cobblestones, and iconic yellow trams. This cosmopolitan city, steeped in history and traditions, offers Fado music, UNESCO sites like Sintra and Cascais within 30 minutes, and a vibrant cultural scene with concerts and festivals. Located on the Tagus river and the sea, Lisbon provides opportunities for water sports and year-round outdoor activities like jogging, hiking, and golf. The rugged Atlantic coast is a 35-minute drive for those seeking peaceful or adventurous escapes.

Lisbon is the perfect option for combining Feldenkrais with culture, nature and sports activities, experiencing a degree of freedom that is difficult to match elsewhere.

The training program

Our training program draws participants from diverse countries, with instruction conducted in English by the renowned educational director, Paul Newton and his team. Paul is globally recognized for his accessible teaching style, characterized by clarity and openness, offering unwavering support to all learners.

The first training year consists of four segments, while the following three years comprise three segments each. Conveniently, the first segment of the program and the February segments will be held online via Zoom. We also provide study groups and online meetings between main training segments and missed training segments or days can easily be made up for in one of our other training programs.

Special benefits of our training programs

In this training program, as in all our training programs, we offer the following benefits:

  • Attend Online Segments In-Person for Free: Revisit online segments in person at no extra cost; pay once, attend twice.
  • Missed training days or segments can be easily made up in our trainings in Madrid, Barcelona or Stockholm, in our sister trainings in Paris or Milan, or in the next Lisbon program starting in 2027.

  • Video Recordings: You can get access to the video recordings of all hands-on training sessions.
