Resource: The Golden Mantra - View here
The Goldern Mantra Is a Movement Pattern that primarily works through the skeletal system, using visualisation, active imaginational and somatisation. Movements flow from and through the Spine/INavel, shaping curves, waves and spirals through shift of weight, affecting the whole skeletal system.
From the premise of the Spine Navel or Inner Navel, which I have named the INavel as the origin of movement, comes a set of instructions that if mindfully applied to all movement, will eventually give freedom and ease to your dance. follow link for full explanation
