"Jeff's material is for me a kind of demystification of the magic of Feldenkrais' legacy. This pedagogical material is for me like having a unique and very helpful look 'behind the scenes'... I don't know any clearer demystification of the work." —Philip U., GCFP, Assistant Trainer

The IOPS Academy offers unparalleled support for Feldenkrais practitioners. IOPS combines intimate in-person trainings, interactive online classes, access to a comprehensive video library, and a supportive cohort of dedicated practitioners. With a cohesive curriculum and philosophy, IOPS takes you far beyond your first training immersion.

IOPS is directed by Jeff Haller, with Andrew Gibbons, Roger Russell and guests.


About Jeff Haller, PhD

As a practitioner for over 40 years, Jeff Haller is known for his understanding of specificity and precision in Functional Integration.

His clientele ranges from professional and Olympic athletes, performing artists, martial artists, and people from all walks of life helping them with developing highly specialized skills that support what they want and need to do to live and excel in their respective fields of interest. Jeff’s background supports his vision of function: he was a Division I basketball player at Oregon State University; a second degree black belt in Aikido; studied yoga and tai chi; and at one point, was a golfer with a 5 handicap. All of these practices can be seen as art forms with an emphasis on proficiency and clarity of utilizing one’s skeleton for efficiency of action.

Jeff has genuinely dedicated himself to assisting members of the Feldenkrais community in honing their skills as practitioners. He does this by helping them bring crucial biomechanical principles into their personal practice. Since the early 1990s, he's artfully taught many workshops aimed at enhancing practitioners' understanding of self-organization, enabling them to support the people they work with more effectively through their own skill and abilities.
