The Trainer Faculty will include among others:
Paul Rubin, Julie Casson Rubin, Edward "Ned" Dwelle, Anke Angelica Feldmann

Faculty and Staff will be of the highest levels of qualification and experience. The ratio of teaching staff to students will meet - and usually exceed - standards administered by the Training Accreditation Board of the International Feldenkrais Federation. In years 3 and 4 we will rely increasingly on a small group format to provide intensively supervised practice and instruction in Functional Integration.

Paul Rubin and Julie Casson Rubin will be present almost over the full course of the Training. The Trainers together with carefully chosen Trainer–Assistants will guarantee individual and careful supervision over the whole of the Training Program. Additional Trainers and Assistant Trainers will guarantee a refreshing variety in teaching styles as well.
