Attending to Movement
Somatic Perspectives on Living in this World

edited by:    Sarah Whatley, Natalie Garrett Brown, Kirsty Alexander


This edited collection draws on the conference, Attending to Movement: Somatic Perspectives on Living in this World, run at C-DaRE, the Centre for Dance Research, Coventry University.

Somatic practitioners, dance artists and scholars from a wide range of subject domains cross discipline borders and investigate the approaches that embodied thinking and action can offer to philosophical and socio-cultural inquiry.

The book celebrates and builds upon the work of visionary dance artist, teacher and scholar Gill Clarke, who championed the value of somatic approaches within and beyond dance education and creative practice.
