The method has two main sources of inspiration: Arnold Mindell’s process-oriented psychology and Carl Gustav Jung’s analytical psychology. The essence of this approach is based on two elements: the first is the recognition of the relationship between what is conscious and what is unconscious in the creator and that relation as the foundation of the creative process. The second is the assumption of human integrity, emphasizing the developmental character of art and stressing the subjective character of the body in the creative process. A great advantage of this method is the so-called multi-channel work based on separating different channels of perception available to man ( a visual one, an auditory, proprioceptive and kinesthetic one). Multichannel work allows us to transcend a purely physical and bodily approach to the art of dance and creates a very broad context of experience for the process of creation in dance.

In turn, the assumption of integrity, combining the psychic and the physical into one wholeness, opens the dancer to a multitude of possible fields of experience as potential sources of movement. Basing our work on many different techniques we can reach (in a coherent and conscious way) into the whole reservoir of experiences given to man, including dreams, imagination, fantasies, memories, physical sensations, symptoms, ailments, as well as seemingly distant experiences, or even experiences which do not belong at all to the dancer’s world of experience.

The essence of this method is a unique degree of individualization of the dance experience, a kind of deep connection with one’s own body and an awareness of what happens through dancing.
