Anatomy of Movement: Exercises, the companion volume to Anatomy of Movement, describes and illustrates, through hundreds of drawings, a comprehensive series of exercises involving the most common movements of the body. In this new third edition, all of the illustrations were updated and the photographs replaced with new illustrations. The exercises were chosen on the basis of their effectiveness and with concern for their safety. Some are designed to focus on strengthening a particular region or muscle group, others the entire body. Each exercise prepares the body to respond well to the demands of particular movements. Together they serve as a basis for the more specialized movements associated with various physical disciplines and therapies.Presentation follows the sequencing in Anatomy of Movement. For each body region the authors describe characteristic movements; potential sources of stiffness or laxity and how to detect, prevent and overcome them; how to strengthen specific muscles or muscle groups; and how to coordinate movements. This is followed by practice pages on which specific exercises are demonstrated.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Anatomy of Movement and Anatomy of Movement: Exercises describe the bones, muscles and joints, how they move, how to exercise specific and coordinated parts--with illustrations, photos and text that make it comprehensible even to someone like me, who's taken nary a class in anatomy, physiology or kinesiology. --Molly Martin, Pacific Magazine

For the client who asks for stretches or exercises to do, there is sure to be something appropriate [here], and the drawings simplify explanation. The practice pages and coordination exercises offer plenty of inspiration for movement sessions as well. --Rolf Lines

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Blandine Calais-Germain's lifelong involvement with dance, both as performer and teacher, eventually led to an interest in other physical disciplines, and then to more formal study of the complex and integrated movements of the body.

From 1977 to 1980 the author studied physiotherapy at the French School of Orthopedics and Massage in Paris. In physiotherapy, body movements are analyzed both in terms of their neurophysiological and mechanical aspects, which allows for a better understanding of the actual mechanisms of movement.

From her work with dance and physiotherapy, the author developed an innovative method for teaching the physical structures of anatomy in relation to movement. This method, the subject of her companion volumes Anatomy of Movement and Anatomy of Movement: Exercises, has been enthusiastically received in workshops that she presented for many years in France. Her two books have been translated and published throughout the world in many languages.

It was just what I had ordered. The only slight gripe I would have was the delivery time. I think it was about 2 weeks. Although the book did come all the way from America.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing. Really basic
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 9, 2021
Verified Purchase
Ridiculously basic, and therefore overpriced. Poor, uninspiring, uninteresting illustrations. The exercises have poor cuing, the exercises are tosh! What i was looking forward to was some biomechanics. Not techical at all eg. Reference to quads muscles is the group and a little on rectus femoris and no mention of how it differs from the other three. In fact no mention of three vastii. Nice big text though to make a nice size easy to handle book.
