Functional Awareness: Anatomy in Action for Dancers is where
anatomy meets artistry. Each chapter provides explorations in
embodied anatomy in an engaging manner with the use of images,
storytelling, and experiential exercises. It is an accessible
introduction to the relationship between daily movement habits,
dance training and anatomy. The information is founded on over
30,000 hours of experience teaching and training dancers to
generate efficient exertion and appropriate recuperation.
Functional Awareness: Anatomy in Action for Dancers employs somatic
practices along with explorations in experiential anatomy to awaken
the body-mind connection and improve movement function. The book
applies the Functional Awareness (R) approach to improve dance
technique and provide skills to enable the dancer to move with
balance and grace in the classroom, on stage, and in daily life.
Functional Awareness and Yoga is an essential book for all who
wishes to deepen their yoga practice and discover strategies to
reduce strain or discomfort on the mat as well as in daily life. It
is also an excellent book of introductory concepts in anatomy as
applied to yoga required during a yoga teacher training. Each
chapter provides essentials in functional anatomy with over 60
practical illustrations. The chapters also apply specific postures
in yoga with cues to support the practice on the mat. Finally, each
chapter contains a mindful practice section to help readers
integrate anatomical imagery into daily life in order to release
unnecessary tension, improve posture, and support ease of movement.
The reflective practice of Functional Awareness (R) changes how one
goes through simple daily tasks in living and demonstrates how
these small simple shifts can have a profound effect on ease in
action and resilience in movement both on and off the yoga mat.
Guiding readers through the essentials in body alignment by
providing engaging explorations in body/mind awareness, the book
offers a pathway to improve resilience and balance in action.
