Mara Fusero

Mara Fusero is the Educational Director of our professional training programs in Barcelona and our new training program in São Paulo, Brazil, which is scheduled to begin in the fall of 2025. She also directs two other programs in Italy (Levico and Monferrato).

Mara completed her initial Feldenkrais training in 1988 with Miriam Pfeffer in Paris. She then became a founding member of the Italian Association of Feldenkrais Method Teachers (AIIMF) and has been instrumental in advancing the method in Italy. To this day, she is still actively working for the Guild.

Bringing a background as a physiotherapist and a registered psychologist, Mara is a curious person: she studied functional anatomy with Blandine Calais-Germain, holds specialized training as a JKA (Jeremy Krauss Approach) practitioner, is a trainer of Bones for Life, and is certified as a pelvic floor teacher.

Her deep understanding of movement and anatomy brings precision, depth, and practical applications to her work.

Her special focus on the pelvic floor as a central element of posture and movement makes the learning process both broad and concrete, allowing students to integrate it into daily life.

Mara is passionate about maintaining the perspective of a beginner, believing that learning is endless, no matter how much one already knows. Instead of simply imparting knowledge, she guides students toward this mindset of discovery and curiosity.

With remarkable energy and dedication, she not only directs training programs, offers advanced training, and teaches as a guest trainer internationally, but she also provides supervision for Feldenkrais practitioners and teaches Feldenkrais courses for physiotherapists, which are recognized by the Italian Ministry of Health with ECM credits.

When not traveling, Mara holds a private practice in both Milan and Vignale Monferrato.

She lives with her husband in Vignale Monferrato on a farm with some animals. Here, in the rolling hills of central Piedmont, she offers Feldenkrais workshops on walking and sitting dynamics. She enjoys growing her own vegetable garden and maintaining a small orchard.
