The book read by Susan Straton focuses on one aspect of faulty sensory appreciation in its explanation and description of wrong and right body maps. The idea of Ôbody mapping' is that simple, anatomical knowledge, i.e. knowing what is where, will help movement. It is perhaps suitable only for people who are having lessons as the act of inhibiting and directing is given a scant description. A chapter for teachers explains how to help pupils with Ôbody mapping.' It also contains sections for practitioners of various disciplines, e.g. musicians, actors, singers, dancers.

Readers Comments | | This highly graphic book is designed to prevent injury and pain in music making, by supporting the musician in the acquisition of an accurate and adequate Body Map; including the mapping of one's neck as a means to freeing it, and the mapping of one's spine so that its natural lengthening and gathering is recovered and cultivated. The book has a humorous tone, and is widely used in music studios for high school and college music students. | | | Weight: | 340 gr | Pages: | 101 | Edition: | Spiral Edition | Published: | 01.02.2000 | Height: | 280 mm | Width: | 215 mm | Thickness: | 7 mm | Klick here to order ...
