Last month I returned to Springdale, Utah to commune with some amazing somatic dance and movement educators and present my current research regarding Deleuzian duration and difference in somatic practice. It was a powerful experience, even more rewarding because one of my high school students, Corrin, also presented at the conference. The youngest presenter ever selected at the international conference, Corrin shared her experience integrating breath awareness in her own ballet training. The conference included presenters from the US and Mexico, and offered many diverse presentations of the multiplicity that is somatics. And we celebrated the phenomenal Sondra Fraleigh's eightieth birthday. In the snow! It was a powerful experience.
