In "Dance and the Alexander Technique, " Rebecca Nettl-Fiol and
Luc Vanier utilize their ten years of research on developmental
movement and dance training to explore the relationship between a
specific movement technique and the basic principles of support and
coordination. The Alexander Technique, developed in the early
twentieth century by F. M. Alexander, can be used to enhance
dexterity in all types of activities, from everyday actions as
mundane as tooth-brushing to highly demanding dance movements.
Applying the tenets of this technique through the lens of a
specific subset of principles called the Dart Procedures, the
authors offer a unique approach for using the Alexander Technique
in dance and other activities. The principles of this technique are
used by people in all walks of life and have proven to be effective
for enhancing performance and improving overall health and
well-being. Amply illustrated and supplemented with a DVD that
demonstrates the concepts and applications of the Alexander
Technique, this book will be highly instrumental for dancers,
teachers of dance, and anyone interested in giving everyday
movements more efficiency, dexterity, and elegance.
