One of the best, a must for anyone who moves

Sweigard's breakdown of the body's bony and muscular systems is easy to understand and precise. Even more interesting are her studies in ideokinesis and methods of facilitating positive change in the human body through the mind. It may sound like mumbo-jumbo, but Sweigard's techniques and methods are rock-solid scientific. This is an enduring anatomy and kinesiology handbook that hasn't gone out of date yet and probably won't. A must for anyone who moves, especially dancers and athletes.
