His ongoing enquiries into movement and the body have radically defined dance in the modern era. Over the past three decades, he has discovered that our intelligence lies not only in our brains, but in our bodies too. In We Are Movement, McGregor argues that physical intelligence is instinctive, pre-verbal, and continually upgrades itself. Mastering it will allow us all to release the knots in our physical and emotional selves, leaving us free to experience new forms of creativity and connection.Drawing on his research with elite performers, athletes, cognitive neuroscientists, anthropologists and technologists, he shows how we can all become more physically fluent. Using simple steps, from practising mindful walking to harnessing our bodies' chemical reaction to stress, he teaches us how to become better communicators and more creative thinkers, so we can ultimately live fuller lives. Elegant, cutting-edge and practical, We Are Movement is a user-friendly guide to priming your physical intelligence that will revolutionise the way you live your life._____'This book is a revelation . a must read for developing our ability to move, unlocking our physical intelligence, and the confidence that follows' Arlene Phillips'A practical guide to thinking, and living, better. Best read while stretching' Anil Seth.
