Such a method should help us to expand our inherent capabilities in whatever direction we choose. We can all think of people we know who somehow seem to carry themselves easily, with poise and balance, and whose movements are a pleasure to watch. These same qualities can frequently be observed in young children. Before reaching the age when they start to interfere with their natural movements, children are active in a unselfconscious and graceful manner. They really enjoy what they do, whether listening to a good story, learning a new skill or plunging wholeheartedly into an energetic game or contest.
Most young children are completely at home in their bodies.
We were all children once. It is the purpose of this book to introduce you to just such a method - and to a number of individuals who have had firsthand experience with it.
