Human movement influences an individual's perceptions and ability to interact with the world. Through exercises, illustrations and detailed anatomical drawings, this book guides the reader toward total body integration. An experimental approach to movement fundamentals involving the patterning of connections in the body according to principles of efficient movement, the process of total body integration encourages personal expression and full psychological involvement. Such work, begun by Irmgard Bartenieff and now know as Bartenieff's Fundamentals, is developed by the author, one of Bartenieff's colleagues. By examining what is truly fundamental in human movement, the book explores inner connections through specific body movements and shares the process for releasing the sensations and feelings that such movements bring forth.
