As a rule, I have enabled helper mode which-function , which displays the current function in the mode line (using this in my emacs configuration):

 (require 'which-func) (which-function-mode t)

MCa goes to the beginning of the current function.

MCe jumps to the end of the current function

It works for elisp and c-derived languages (e.g. Java).
