I love to help people feel better in their bodies and unlock their full potential for movement and vitality. I bring my passion for movement, love of learning, and deep reverence for the mystery and magic of the body to my Ilan Lev Practice.
I have been a certified Ilan Lev Method Practitioner for over 15 years, and have run my private practice in NYC for over a decade, helping to treat dancers, musicians, and people of all ages and abilities for injury, pain, functional limitation, post concussion syndrome, and physical and emotional trauma.
My personal experience as a professional dancer and my own recovery from numerous injuries in my past, has led me to be the Ilan Lev Practitioner I am today. I love to share the knowledge I have been accumulating throughout my life and in this way, give back to the community.

The Ilan Lev Method (ILM) is a revolutionary form of hands-on bodywork that sends traveling waves of movement and energy through the body, restoring communication between parts of the body that had been lost, removing pain and blockages, and bringing balance to the sensory, skeletal, and nervous systems.
Developed by master healer and therapist, Ilan Lev and based off of the Feldenkrais Method and Bioenergy healing, The Ilan Lev Method brings an explosion of movement, life force energy, playful provocation, and joy to the body. This creates the environment in which the body's natural ability to heal itself can arise. We discover optimal range of motion, efficiency of effort, and a new understanding of ourselves, through play.
The practitioner brings gentle, effortless movement to the client’s body allowing for a rich and powerful dialog within and between client and practitioner; like a dance. This allows new physical pathways and coordinations to emerge or become clearer, old habits to be thrown out, and physical and emotional trauma to be released.

what people are saying
“Annie is a magician. Her Ilan Lev practice has helped me so much, I don’t know how else to describe it.”
— Jenna J., 33, New York
“So I saw her for a few treatments for arthritis in my hands, and several more sessions for various other problems. I was pain free for four years after seeing her and only recently needed a “tune-up”. Ilan Lev therapy, at least as practiced by Annie, has rescued me from constant pain and disability. I leave her sessions feeling like all my joints, not just my hands, are smooth and lubricated. I just float home.”
— Charles K., New York
