"Renowned master teacher Eric Franklin has thoroughly updated his classic text, Dance Imagery for Technique and Performance, providing dancers and dance educators with a deep understanding of how they can use imagery to improve their dancing and artistic expression in class and in performance.
These features are new to this edition:

-Two chapters include background, history, theory, and uses of imagery.

-294 exercises offer dancers and dance educators greater opportunities to experience how imagery can enhance technique and performance.

-133 illustrations facilitate the use of imagery to improve technique, artistic expression, and performance.

-Four exercises taught by Franklin and available on HK's website help dancers with essential rest and relaxation techniques.

Franklin provides hundreds of imagery exercises to refine improvisation, technique, and choreography. The 295 illustrations cover the major topics in the book, showing exercises to use in technique, artistic expression, and performance. In addition, Franklin supplies imagery exercises that can restore and regenerate the body through massage, touch, and stretching. And he offers guidance in using imagery to convey information about a dancer's steps and to clarify the intent and content of movement." -- from Amazon book description
