Walking for Longevity - An Interview with Anastasi Siotas

This month Joe Webster interviews Feldenkrais™ Trainer Anastasi Siotas about Walking for Longevity.
We discuss some of the many health benefits of making walking a bigger part of your day to day life, as well as some of the movement/health consequences of not moving enough and being overly sedentary.
Anastasi draws on his multiple years of experience as a Feldenkrais teacher and highlights some very interesting aspects of how we walk that help build the picture of why walking is such an important human action.
Anastasi Siotas is a Greek-Australian well known for his expertise in Anatomy, gained through
studies, research, and teaching in diverse fields such as marine plant cell biology, modern
dance, and biotensegrity. He has been working as a Feldenkrais practitioner in New York City
since 1997 and has assisted in Feldenkrais training programs in Manhattan continuously
since 1998. Anastasi trained in movement analysis at the Laban/Bartenieff Institute of
Movement Studies NYC and has been on their faculty teaching Kinesthetic Anatomy since 2008.
His unique approach to the Feldenkrais Method has been well received in the USA, Australia,
China, Japan, Austria, Holland, and Greece.

Thank you. Some great content here. Quote: "Your entire system is built for movement. We are born into movement and when we're not moving we're really not thriving in many ways. So I just think it's walking is just the the perfect thing for us humans to do and it might be worth you know doing it just for the sake of doing it as opposed to just doing it because you've got to get from A to B."
