His broadest books theoretically are "The Potent Self" and "Body and Mature Behaviour". Those go beyond physical theories to volition and personality. Those are the books not in storage. Most of the others are, though maybe not Hanna.

I think Feldenkrais's main book for exercises was Awareness Through Movement.

Do you think those books of Feldenkrais are useful to read without having Feldenkrais lessons? If so which book would you recommend most?

(I do have a strongly developed sense of my own body)

"The Potent Self" is probably the most valuable theoretically, and ATM gives you a start on exercises. Youtube seems to have a ton of them.

Yes, and I don't think you need lessons. Part of his method is having you learn how to learn.

Youtube seems to have a ton of them.

Can you make recommendation on that front? Both positive as in watch channel X as well as negative about staying away from certain channels.
