Originally from Moscow, Dimitri Popolov first experienced Feldenkrais method there in 2003. He immediately felt the benefits of the method for his body awareness, movement, and the overall well being. Having moved to Canada in 2013, he missed the classes a lot.

As life permitted, Dimitri embarked on a professional training program with Feldenkrais Institute in Portugal. He is now a Certified Practitioner with Feldenkrais Guild of North America. He is impressed by the effectiveness and depth of the method and strives to transmit those in his classes.

Dimitri works in Information Technology and holds PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from De Montfort University in the UK and the second PhD in Social Philosophy from Moscow Bauman University. He is also an amateur cellist applying Feldenkrais principles to the art of playing this beautiful instrument.

He has been living with his family in London since 2014 and you may see him in the Old North walking (kind of) his white Scottie.
