Autor/-in: Lise Lavelle

In 1988, Lise Lavelle initiated her own movement work naming it the 'Dance of Life and Healing Theater, ' and in 1997 changed it to 'Embodyment, dance of release and transformation'. She drew on her training in classical Danish relaxation and movement, Sumarah meditation as well as her practice of Amerta Movement with Prapto in Java, and turned them into a 'holistic' movement practice. She drew on earlier practices of Qigong, Tai chi, Kung fu, ritual dance, and Theravada Buddhist walking meditation and mindfulness. She had a PhD in Indonesian from Lund University, Sweden.
