What Every<br />

Dancer Needs<br />

to Know About<br />

the Body<br />

A Workbook of Body<br />

Mapping and the<br />

Alexander Technique<br />

Robin Gilmore<br />

Dancers may have more<br />

consciously learned movement<br />

patterns than any other profession. Among<br />

the many forms and techniques of dance<br />

there are often conflicting instructions,<br />

and the dancer must translate these ideas<br />

into movement and artistry. This book is intended to be a workbook and playbook<br />

through which dancers and all movers can improve the quality of their movement.<br />

Through clear, concise text, numerous illustrations and guided movement<br />

explorations, learn to embody basic anatomy. “Decode” common dance habits and<br />

develop a conscious approach to moving with ease and pleasure.<br />

Dancers, dance teachers, and anyone with an interest in the Alexander<br />

Technique and movement will want a copy of What Every Dancer Needs to Know<br />
