He has graduated 14 trainings of the JKA work with children and is now in his all inclusive 3 year Abilities of Training. Jeremy Krauss was a direct student of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais and in his career presenting Dr. Feldenkrais’s ideas he directed personally over 28 training programs. The Jeremy Krauss Approach Abilities training now includes learning to work with adults in groups and hands-on as well as special needs children.

The JKA studies are interdisciplinary educational programs that encompasses work with children and adults in groups and private sessions of hands-on work including: 

JKA – Abilities Lessons in Movement, JKA – ALM
JKA – Abilities Through Movement lessons, JKA – ATM

DHO – Developmental Hands-On

FHO – Functional Hands-On

JKA – Solvents and Glue

Jeremy also developed and teaches JKA – Solvents and Glue, a invigorating movement system for strengthening, solidifying, and special toning through a variety of very precise movements that bring structural clarity to major joints of the body.  JKA – Solvents and Glue lessons take place primarily in standing, and support feelings of stability, mobility, clarity, stamina, balance, confidence, greater uprightness and vitality.

Jeremy’s knowledge of the early development and classical Feldenkrais is unsurpassed. He is recognised worldwide as an excellent teacher for both his clarity as well as his creative abilities in presenting practical and theoretical aspects and in developing new and unique materials.
