Cannot say enough about how helpful this book was for a beginning instructor!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy TiptozGreat book!13 of 15 people found the following review helpful. get it. breathe it. work it. good stuffBy A CustomerTalk about ideas. This book has wonderful exercises to explore with friends; a class; and workshops of all kinds. Morgenroth starts with the planning of a session and brings you all the way through time; space; weight dependency; rhythm and breathing to the closure of a session. She details preparation; procedure; variations and observations in a straight forward; to the point maner. The exercises are interesting and stimulate movement in creative ways. I recommend this book to anyone exploring improvisational movement.
