"Harnessing the Wind also covers essential presentation issues such as pacing, making good corrections, building images to enhance movement learning, and collaborating successfully with musicians. It also addresses important professional considerations, such as how to objectively analyze and critique a very subjective subject - the body - and how to maintain a healthy body, mind, and spirit."--BOOK JACKET.
