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.

This soap smells really good. My son uses this soap for his eczema.
I like the fact, that the soap bars are big. I was able, to cut it in half. But, it does come with 2 bars. And it smells really nice.

Great soap
I get dry skin in the winter and I had tried all kinds of lotions with no luck then used baby oil gel for a couple days unfortunately I had a bad reaction and developed a BAD rash on my legs , arms and stomach. I ordered this this to try out of desperation. With in 2 days my skin was healing. The itching stopped! My skin was finally calming down. After a week the rash was practically gone and my skin feels better. After 2 weeks my skin is so soft and smooth again. Only thing is like others have said the square shape doesn't fit well in smaller hands , so I did what others did and cut it in half. I don't keep it in the shower as it does melt fast. The scent is a fresh clean scent that isn't too strong. It lathers very well both on your skin and in a shower puff. Highly recommend!

Oatmeal soap
I’m toxic and have eczema so bad the soap burns my skin but I use it anyway, later after a shower it calms down. It has a fragrant which, with these skin- gut problems isn’t good…but the way of progress is neither swift nor easy! 🌹
