MENTASTICS (mental gymnastics): Standing exercises that involve weight-shifting, swinging, and letting go establish a sense of delight and awareness of one's moving self.
MENTAL GYMNASTICS According to Ormyron, who is also an accredited practitioner of the Trager approach called Mentastics, developed by Milton Trager (1908-1997), its major difference from the Feldenkrais method is that the sensory input is massive, yet it doesn't diminish the pleasure of the experience.
