Today's conversation is with Andrea Olsen.
Andrea Olsen, performer, author, and educator, is a Professor Emerita of Dance at Middlebury College, and a certified instructor of Holden QiGong and Embodyoga. She is author of a quartet of books on embodiment: Bodystories: A Guide to Experiential Anatomy, Body and Earth: An Experiential Guide, The Place of Dance: A Somatic Guide to Dancing and Dance Making with colleague Caryn McHose, and Moving Between Worlds: A Guide to Embodied Living and Communicating, along with numerous articles and chapters in anthologies_._ Recent projects include continuing the Body and Earth: Seven Web-Based Somatic Excursions film project with Scotty Hardwig and Caryn McHose (http://body-earth.org) and performing “Awakening Grace: Six Somatic Tools”.
In today's conversation we spoke about a wide gamut of topics including how Andrea came to be the powerhouse that she is, we discuss the creative and artistic processes, her books and the importance they have on a global spectrum, being an educator, embodiment, non-verbal communication, the release of her new book, and as always so much more. We hope to have her on again and explore even more topics along the spectrum of being a living, breathing embodied being.
