What is Body Mapping? Body Mapping increases awareness of movement habits to prevent injury, overcome limitations, and develop healthy and sustainable musical practices for life. Body Mapping instructors guide musicians through movements and anatomical drawings and models. Musicians experiment with more efficient and dynamic movement while singing and at their instruments. Body Mapping Masterclasses are ideal for musicians of any genre, instrument, singers, composers, students, and professionals.  
Why should I participate? Musicians learn how to correct and refine their body map—our internal representation and understanding of how the body moves to create music—to produce efficient, coordinated, and effective movement. Body Mapping not only helps musicians avoid injury, it also enhances musicians’ technique. Anatomical information about the body is explored in movement for musicians. Topics covered range from inclusive awareness and standing and sitting at balance, to skeletal anatomy, the structures and movements of breathing, and performance anxiety.
