This program shares the unique and artistic ways of Goldhahn using Authentic Movement practice (or the MoverWitness exchange Goldhahn 2007) in arts and educational settings. Showing the practice within workshop and studio formats it becomes apparent how this approach can be used to train dancers and actors. From sourcing movement material to building ways of collaborating the viewer can see how the practice can be used to develop new choreography or arrive at an artistic piece of dance video art. The practice takes place within a very simple score or frame. There is no music to inspire participants who close their eyes when they move. Their movement arises out of stillness and spontaneous impulses of body and mind. The ensuing choreography of gestures can be surprising and poignant
