294 Conclusion<br />
Gries has a much broader view of the future: he hopes that younger sciences,<br />
like neuroscience, will succeed in explaining the types of communication torrents<br />
that rush through the body. “That would be the ultimate legacy, if<br />
aspects of Release Technique would move on into our understanding of consciousness,<br />
spirituality, health.” With this, Release Technique research would<br />
then find itself in a pioneering context where it has, time and again in the<br />
past, furthered aesthetic, artistic, and<br />
everyday development from a pedestrian<br />
vantage point.<br />
“It is body training focused on economy<br />
that gives you the chance to organize<br />
yourself as efficiently as possible.<br />
After that you can do with it what you<br />
will. You can dance ballet, flamenco,<br />
or hip–hop, you can become a dramatic<br />
actor—you can apply the tools taught<br />
universally.” Sylvia Scheidl, research team
