"In this book, Shay Welch expands on the contemporary cognitive thinking-in-movement framework, which has its roots in the world of Maxine Sheets-Johnstone but extends and develops within contemporary embodied cognition theory. Welch believes that dance can be used to ask questions, and this book offers a method of how critical inquiry can be embodied.
