The Place of Dance is written for the general reader as well as for dancers. It reminds us that dancing is our nature, available to all as well as refined for the stage. Andrea Olsen is an internationally known choreographer and educator who combines the science of body with creative practice. This workbook integrates experiential anatomy with the process of moving and dancing, with a particular focus on the creative journey involved in choreographing, improvising, and performing for the stage. Each of the chapters, or "days," introduces a particular theme and features a dance photograph, information on the topic, movement and writing investigations, personal anecdotes, and studio notes from professional artists and educators for further insight. The third in a trilogy of works about the body, including Bodystories: A Guide to Experiential Anatomy and Body and Earth: An Experiential Guide, The Place of Dance will help each reader understand his/her dancing body through somatic work, create a dance, and have a full journal clarifying aesthetic views on his or her practice. It is well suited for anyone interested in engaging embodied intelligence and living more consciously.

Potential Fall Risk
Size: 2 pairs black L
While these socks do indeed help soften rough skin on your feet, there is a risk of falling while wearing them. Although they have treads on the bottom, which would indicate they’re safe to wear with nothing else, when you put moisturizer on and then wear them your foot can slip inside the sock . This causes you to lose your balance and fall, which happened to me. I’ve thrown them out.

I could be a foot model now!!!
Size: 1 pair black L
I wear work boots almost all of the time so I bought these to put on my feet with salycylic acid to moisturize and try to get rid of a stubborn corn on the ball of my foot. It helped drastically after a few nights of lounging in the house with them on.

Favorite treat
Flavor Name: Duck & Veggies, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My dog loves these treats the best, and the spoiled pooch has tried many! I love that these are super small sized, not messy, and low calorie which allows for lots of reinforcement while training. I also appreciate that the ingredients are very clean.

Buy these only if you love your dog
Flavor Name: Duck & Veggies, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I was looking for a dog treat that didn’t have sugar. And let me tell you these training treats are not only delicious to the dogs, but I love that the ingredients do not include any sweetener. I don’t think it’s a good idea to give our dogs tons of sugar, unless we’re brushing their teeth every day like we do for our own teeth. So for the longevity of my puppies teeth, she’s gonna get these high-quality yummy Yum‘s. I love that I can break them apart and make more treats out of the treats they gave so the bag last for months, even with daily training.
