Laban/Bartenieff Fundamentals

Life is Movement.
We move out of need -- to seek food, eat, digest, and eliminate, to avoid danger, to find a mate. We also move out of our longings -- to become, to fulfill dreams, to express passions. We are conceived, gestated, born, grow up, and live our lives through movement, through constant rhythmic pulsations. Returning to and practicing the Fundamentals of human movement is calming and restorative. It helps heal injuries to our selves and helps us grow more articulate, co-ordinated, expressive and joyful in our movement and therefore in every aspect of our lives.
