Drawing from Feldenkerais, Bagua and Taichi, The Art of Slowing Down presents a highly innovative approach to running. Power, speed, coordination and agility are less related to willpower or God-given talent than they are to how well you can sense your own body. Running faster can, in this light, be seen as an issue of learning to become more sensible - that is, more sense-able - through playful and systematic exploration of movement.
