The book meanders purposefully through practice-led embodied approaches in research that generate new knowledge, methodological frameworks that have emerged in response to the needs of different contexts, as well as oferring a window on first-hand experience as practice.The book will appeal to a wide range of practitioners and trainees in dance movement psychotherapy, arts therapies, counselling and psychotherapy, somatics, community practice and performance.
