The essentials

Ieva Vinet is a dancer, interdisciplinary artist and Feldenkrais practitioner in training, based in Vilnius. Since 2023 she has been in a four-year international professional training in the Feldenkrais Method® in Lisbon. She teaches Awareness Through Movement® group classes in central Vilnius and online, alongside contemporary dance and somatic movement, and runs short workshops on the pelvis, on breathing and emotional regulation, and on the neck and jaw. A single Feldenkrais lesson costs €12. Classes are taught in Lithuanian, and you don't need any experience to join.

Why this profile is listed

We listed Ieva because she comes to the method from two directions at once, the dance floor and the camera. She has danced since she was four, taught by her mother, and still teaches Lithuanian folk dance to children alongside her. She trained as a photographer and media artist, and it shows in how carefully she looks at movement. Her classes are built around a handful of clear themes rather than a general promise: the pelvis, the chest and breath, the neck and jaw, how you sit. She's open about where she is on her path, too, and says plainly that she's still in training.

03 — What her practice stands for.

What her practice stands for.

Ieva works where movement, awareness and the nervous system meet. Her lessons are gentle and driven by curiosity rather than effort, and they're aimed at people who carry something in the body: a sore back, a stiff neck, a jaw that clenches, a breath that never quite settles. Instead of fixing one spot, each lesson looks at how the whole body organises itself around it.

Her own writing makes the same point about back pain. It's rarely about a single place, more often about everyday habits like how you sit and lift. Feldenkrais gives you the time to notice those habits and find easier ones, so tension gets caught before it turns into pain.

Can I join online?

Yes. The Monday class runs in the Vilnius studio and online at the same time, and the Thursday morning class is online only.

How much is a class?

Is Ieva a certified Feldenkrais teacher?

She's in a four-year international professional training in Lisbon, which she started in 2023, and she teaches Awareness Through Movement® group classes. She says so openly, and so does this profile.

Is Feldenkrais a treatment?

No. It's somatic education, a way of learning. It doesn't replace medical care, so if you have acute or unexplained pain, see a doctor first.
