Book Description

Dance innovator shares wisdom and scoresAnna Halprin, vanguard postmodern dancer turned community artist and healer, has created ground-breaking dances with communities all over the world. Here, she presents her philosophy and experience, as well as step-by-step processes for bringing people together to create dances that foster individual and group well-being. At the heart of this book are accounts of two dances: the Planetary Dance, which continues to be performed throughout the world, and Circle the Earth. The Circle the Earth workshop for people living with AIDS has generated dozens of scores for others to adapt. In addition, the book provides a concrete guide to Halprin's celebrated Planetary Dance. Now more than 35 years old, Planetary Dance promotes peace among people and peace with the Earth. Open to everyone, it has been performed in more than 50 countries. In 1995 more than 400 participants joined her in a Planetary Dance in Berlin commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the signing of the Potsdam Agreements, at the end of World War II. More recently, she took the Planetary Dance to Israel, bringing together Israelis and Palestinians as well as other nationalities. Throughout this book Halprin shows how dance can be a powerful tool for healing, learning and mobilizing change, and she offers insight and advice on facilitating groups. If we are to survive, Halprin argues, we must learn, experientially, how our individual stories weave together and strengthen the fabric of our collective body. Generously illustrated with photographs, charts and scores, this book will be a boon to dance therapists, educators and community artists of all types.

I can't believe how easy it is to discover new titles and genres. Pure delight! This app has become my go-to for audiobooks, adding a layer of convenience and enjoyment to my days. The interface is clean and intuitive. I was up and running in seconds. The app is very user-friendly. ListenBook makes listening to audiobooks a breeze. This served its purpose as background listening while I worked. I probably missed some details but the narrator's voice was pleasant enough.

Bookmarks are a lifesaver for study materials. I never lose my place again. ListenBook's player features, including chapters and bookmarks, are invaluable for a seamless experience. The bookmark feature is fantastic. I can easily pick up where I left off. I love the ability to share my progress with friends. It’s a fun feature.

🎧 Audiobooks anywhere, anytime – this app's convenience is unbeatable! 🌟📚 An audiobook lover's dream come true! This app's seamless functionality and diverse format support make it my go-to choice for immersive storytelling. 📚🎧 The statistics feature in ListenBook provides valuable insights into my audiobook consumption habits. ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature is a blessing for clear dictaphone recordings. Decent audiobook but I think I would have enjoyed reading it more. Some of the more subtle humor didn't quite land in the audio format.
