Frank Wildman Video

This is how its done! Frank Wildman in a 9-minute interview on the The Today Show in Australia.

Note: It’s Frank Wildman. Not Frank Wildman channeling a dead guy and talking about Moshe. Not Frank Wildman talking about “restoring each person to their human dignity” or some other Feldenkrias blah blah quote*. Frank is using contemporary, easy-to-understand language and anecdotes. Very engaging and inspiring.

And I must say, Frank looks about 10 years younger than last time I saw him. Hmm. Could it be he is Changing His Age?

Enjoy:

*Please note: I have nothing against Feldenkrais “blah blah” quotes nor quoting dead guys. I do it all the time. Especially, Moshe “What’s His Face.” He’s very quotable. Kind of fat. Not very cute. But very quotable. But there is a time and a place for it. And speaking to the public is not it. If you want people to think you are part of a religious cult, or are just a general whacko, don’t look directly at them. Stare off into space, look very intense and say, “What I’m after is to restore each person to their human dignity.”

    I like it. I am interested in presentation that can really reach people and not just ‘feldenkrais people’.

  • Kim says:

    Ryan, thanks for this. So wonderful to see Frank and his articulate, pertinent, and relat-able comments about our work. I’m proud to say, I’m one of his graduates.

    Thanks. Because of my academic background, I tend to easily fall into “jargon.” But simplicity does have it’s place. I like to say that we don’t first teach someone a headstand lesson, we start somewhere simpler and easier…so no need to start them out with a linguistic head stand, we can help them take baby-steps….

    Great to hear from you – Ryan

  • Kim says:

    That’s a great description, “linguistic head stand.” Can I quote you?
