Benefits are achieved by enhancing the efficiency, coordination, and grace of an individual’s posture and movement.Lessons can be done with the student lying on a firm but comfortable work table, standing, or sitting. The practitioner gently touches or moves the student in a wide variety of ways to facilitate awareness, learning, and vitality. Gradually the student is led to organize new movement patterns through both conscious and subconscious learning.
