[Adta] looking for video/article/book suggestions

[Joan Chodorow, Ph.D.]

> Dear Annabelle and all,
> 
> I heard wonderful things about the The Dancing Self, by Carol Press and just
> ordered it.  And as Patrizia said,  Anandha Ray is such a choreographer.
> Volume Two of Authentic Movement, edited by Patrizia Pallaro will soon be
> published by Jessica Kingsley in London and I understand it includes one or
> more chapters on authentic movement as a resource for choreography.
> 
> Another fine resource currently in production is a book by Jill Hayes,
> professor of dance at a college or university in the UK.   It will be
> published by  Archive Publishing, based in Lincolnshire, England.  Here is
> something I wrote  about it:
> 
> Advance review for the back cover of Performing the Dreams of Your Body:
> Plays of Animation and Compassion, by Jill Hayes
>>  
>> I loved reading this beautifully written, sensitive and perceptive work about
>> the history, development and integrative nature of inner-directed dance.
>> Through symbolic narrative, psychological insight, poetic metaphor, research
>> and more, Jill Hayes invites the reader into the dancer¹s multi-sensory
>> world, giving special attention to practices of embodiment and imagination.
>> Performing the Dreams of Your Body is not about dance as a form of
>> entertainment; rather it is about dance as a way to experience, express,
>> communicate and explore the passions and mysteries of the human soul.  If you
>> are interested in embodied imagination, emotion, creativity and compassion,
>> don¹t miss this book!
>> 
>> Joan Chodorow, Author, Dance Therapy and Depth Psychology: The Moving
>> Imagination
