Synopsis

My hope is to produce a classroom manual which can support accurate and effective transmission of Dr. Rolf's creative legacy. Many schools are beginning to teach structural integration now. This is good: the work is real, down-to-earth, and tied to fundamental things, like gravity and the shape of bones. It could be the basis of a folk-healing method, with a structural bodyworker in every neighborhood. It is profound and yet oh, so simple.... My hope is to present a text from which bodyworkers can appreciate Dr. Rolf's original vision of a truly evolutionary work while at the same time gaining many useful strategies for dealing with the challenges they encounter in practice. Volume 1 is intended to convey the principles of structural integration. It introduces the elements of gravity, geometry, movement, fascia and touch, together with enough practical maneuvers to begin doing the work.
