Mary Bond- The New Rules of Posture from Mary…”My book, The New Rules of Posture, presents new developments in movement education. It evolved out of my wish to share the legacy of Ida Rolf with the general public. While this legacy includes the understanding of posture and movement, it also has philosophical implications. The deeper message is that the way we inhabit our bodies affects the ways in which we perceive the world and behave toward one another. My 2012 DVD, Heal Your Posture, further elucidates this message.”

Touch for Health (TFH) is the most widely used system of kinesiology in the world. Touch For Health  uses muscle testing as a method of biofeedback to identify imbalances in the body’s energy system. Using a holistic approach, TFH rebalance the body’s energies and activate the body’s intrinsic healing process so that the body can better heal itself. TFH Kinesiology can be easily learned by anyone, with a little practice, without any prior knowledge of muscles, physiology, meridians, etc.
