The reader is led through the multiple layers within the discipline--moving and witnessing in dyads and then groups; in the presence of a witnessing teacher--to develop a comprehensive and experiential understanding of this innovative way of work. Designed for professionals and laypersons interested in psychology; bodywork; mystic traditions; or personal transformation; the discipline of Authentic Movement is at the cutting edge of emerging Western healing practices.
