Jaki Nett: The Felt Sense MethodSM

I recently attended a workshop led by Jaki Nett on The Felt Sense Method. The emphasis was on working with the pelvic floor muscles. Jaki discovered her method for bringing health back to the pelvic floor and regained control over her bladder through self observation, study, introspection, yoga practice and teaching.

It is estimated that over 25 million men and women in the U.S. suffer from incontinence, the loss of bladder control. However, muscle health can be restored using The Felt Sense Method, relieving the embarrassment of incontinence. Jaki teaches classes in St. Helena, Corta Madera and at the Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco.

Finally, she is clearly trained in the Iyengar tradition. However, I experienced her as much less dogmatic in her approach than some other Iyengar teachers that I have studied with. If you are dealing with pelvic floor issues, I would strongly recommend studying with Jaki Nett.
