PhD Thesis: The Ecological Body ~ extracts

These pages include some snippets from my Doctoral Thesis completed at the University of Exeter in 2009.

The thesis was called 'The Ecological Body' and included a number of movement studies, performances and research projects. 

The thesis as a whole was based around my Move into Life movement practice.
