Rather than a single technical or methodological approach, the AS is a potential resource for all those who work with the human body: artists, athletes and healers.
In this session, we will study the current status of the AS lexicon, and discuss the bio-mechanical, empirical and medical resources that form the bulk of the AS information bank. We will compare past and present assumptions, newer and older training approaches, and review evidence for strategic modality changes. We will also spend time considering the practical applications and the ethical questions that this knowledge engenders for teachers, therapists, project leaders and participants.
