It is written so beautifully and evocatively about the aspect of dance performance which many dancers have either never experienced or have forgotten. It 'rekindles the fire and stirs the cauldron' for teachers and performing artists alike." -Joan J. Woodbury, Professor of Dance, Emerita, University of Utah, Co-Founder Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company ​<br />​ "This small pocket guide is quite a miracle of a book." - Reginald A. Ray, PhD, Spiritual Director, Dharma Ocean Foundation ​<br />​ "Marcia Wardell Kelly's exploration of Alwin Nikolais' theories of motion is sensorially explored and creatively inspiring." -Phyllis Lamhut, Choreographer, Original member Nikolais Dance Theater, Teacher, New York University Tisch School of the Arts ​<br />​ "This concise book contains ideas synthesized from Alwin Nikolais' teaching that the serious dancer at any level of proficiency can practice to become a formidable performer." -Gladys Bailin, Distinguised Professor of Dance, Emerita, Ohio University, Former member of Nikolais Dance Theater ​<br />​ "Marcia Wardell Kelly's translation of the Nikolais/Louis philosophy is exhilarating. She takes a new generation of dancers on a performer's journey through the creative elements of motion, space, shape and time." -Alberto Del Saz, Artistic Director, Nikolais/Louis Foundation for Dance, Inc.<br>
