The dance: essence of embodiment
1School of Health Sciences, Milledgeville, USA. block@mail.gesu.edu
Abstract:
An analysis of movement, and particularly of dance, helps us to see in an extraordinarily effective way the meaning of embodiment. This paper then looks through the eyes of dance theorists and at philosophers who consider dance and movement and their meaning of embodiment. A study of movement and dance encompasses the fullest meaning of embodiment: that the embodied way of being-in-the-world is also an embedded way of being in a world of others. Dance has critically important social ramifications. In our own and other cultures, dance plays an important role in healing and in health enhancement.
