I am delighted to share news of a wondrous on-line site dedicated to last fall’s Somatic Festival celebrating Janet Adler, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, and Nancy Stark Smith. The site hosts a generous bounty of photos, dance, film, drawings, as well as video of festival workshops and panel conversations—all fruits of the extraordinary embodied inquiry and practices developed by these women with their students and collaborators.
