Bone, Breath, & Gesture: Practices of Embodiment
by Don Hanlon Johnson
"A breathtaking work of genius, the Feldenkrais Methods—one (“Functional Integration”), hands-on with an individual teacher; the other (“Awareness Through Movement”), group movements directed by a teacher—teach a person how to liberate oneself from the narrow range of stereotypical movement patterns that we learn in our culture, and to find a wider range of moving, and being.
