Core principles
Authentic Movement is grounded in several core principles:
- Inner impulse — movement arises from sensation, image, emotion, or impulse perceived internally.
- Presence — sustained attention to lived experience in the moment.
- Witnessing — a non-judgemental, receptive presence that observes movement without interpretation.
- Differentiation — cultivating awareness of boundaries between self and other, mover and witness.
- Integration — reflecting on experience through language and meaning after movement.
