Book: Kentro Body Balance, The Secret Pleasures of Posture

by Angelika Thusius

This 232-page book describes thirty-three of the over 70 Kentro Movements (including a 12-Movements mini program). Every Movement description is accompanied by photos and an inspirational chapter. There are helpful suggestions on how to combine Kentro Movements and apply them to precise areas of the body for dissolving muscle/joint pain. A separate section illustrates how to integrate the movements with everyday activities. The book contains over two hundred images of people moving with centered motion and original anatomical illustrations by the author. The book is useful for anyone wishing to move with lasting natural strength and ease. Likewise, it can serve as a reference book for future Kentro teachers.

The Appendix: The KENTRO Approach To Optimal Posture is written by Martha Plescia, Physical Therapist
