Somatics in Action describes a Pilates, yoga, and dance inspired
movement system that helps movers achieve optimum strength,
skeletal alignment, and body-mind engagement. The book integrates
the Pilates principle of strengthening abdominal and spinal
musculature to support postural stability and balance with
alignment-based yoga's principle of proper physical placement and
an understanding of anatomical structure. Three additional concepts
that contribute to the foundation of SIA are imagery, experiential
anatomy, and body integration. This work focuses on dancers
consistently engaging with their body and mind's inner wisdom, not
only in quiet moments of reflection, but also in the very active
moments of moving, dancing and creating. Somatics in Action details
the unique movement theory and practice developed by the author.
The book blends yoga, Pilates, experiential anatomy, body
integration and imagery into a comprehensive, rigorous and creative
pedagogical tool for educators and dancers. The textbook outlines
how dance, movement, yoga and Pilates educators can incorporate
this technique into their teaching and curriculum. The book: *
provides thoughtful and nuanced explanation of the technique as
well as detailed lesson plans and assignments that can be
implemented immediately into a university or other curriculum. *
can be used in any somatic based class (yoga, Pilates, dance
conditioning), in modern dance technique courses and also in
creative movement curricula
