Skinner releasing technique

The Skinner Releasing Technique™ (SRT) is a dance technique developed by Joan Skinner in the 1960s based on the belief that there is an innate sense of coordination in movement, that this is lost through muscle tension and resulting skeletal misalignment, as people grow up, but that it can be refound using the SRT, using movement, imagery, voice, language, and music leading to body-mind integration.

Professor Emeritus Joan Skinner, University of Washington, was a member of the Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham Dance Companies.
