The center
A haven in the city
Brussels is anchored in Forest Lighthouse, a place where Feldenkrais meets dance, martial arts, massage, somatic therapy, and broader artistic projects.
The result is an urban, international, and very alive center where study happens inside a real ecosystem of practices. It gives the training an open, inclusive tone rooted in city life.
