Ruthy Alon was one of 6 Feldenkrais Method trainers, who actually worked with and were trained by Moshe Feldenkrais. This made them first generation trainers, who actually attended in the room lessons with Moshe himself. Feldenkrais died on 1 July 1984. and I started my discoveries into his work in 1992, working with one of his First Gen group. I'm proud of my heritage and having the privilege to be a second generation Feldenkrais Trainer.
Ruthy Alon defined organic learning in the following way
Organic learning is when the organism itself uses its facilities to make an adjustment to invest a functional solution exploring negotiating evaluating to update a conclusion so that the person can replace a habitual and counterproductive response with a more accurate one an improvement in the bodily performance is validated not when it is intentionally calculated and imposed by limitation but only if it derives spontaneity from within the non-conscious organism a rare phenomenon for the mature person but if the adult can regain this child-like capacity to invent success this is a source for a biological optimism as well as an actual improvement in movement and an enhancement of the well-being
