Reviews for Dance Imagery for Technique and Performance

The Franklin method has proved invaluable to our students at the Juilliard School in New York City for the past several years. Learning how to use mental imagery and functional anatomy for dance augments our training program beautifully because it is clear, precise, and useful in every way for any dancer. The students have found it revelatory! Lawrence Rhodes--Director of the Dance Division, The Juilliard School
