All-inclusive practitioner retreat

with Candy Conino & Andrew Gibbons

October 14-19, 2026
Potash Hill, Marlboro, VT

Only four spots left! Register now to secure your place (and save 15% when you register by July 31!).

You spend your days tracking everyone else’s center of gravity. Observing their habits. Helping their nervous systems find a way out of strain.

But when was the last time you gave your own system room to breathe and the upgrade it needs?

Effort Made Good is a five-day laboratory in the Vermont hills designed specifically for Feldenkrais practitioners, recent grads, and trainees to shed the role of the teacher and simply become the student again.

Led by Candy Conino and Andrew Gibbons, this intimate intensive focuses on translating complex mechanical leverage into concrete, real-world application—without the rush and noise of your usual daily schedule.

We’ve taken care of every detail so you can focus entirely on self-organization:

Quiet, historic lodging in the Green Mountain foothills.
Three nourishing, chef-prepared meals served on-site daily.
High-level collaborative study with a community of your peers.

No need to perform or demonstrate flexibility. Just a shared curiosity in how we move, live, and sustain our practice over time.
