Anybody worked with dance teacher Steve Paxton?
A friend recently showed me a DVD "Material for the Spine" by dance teacher Steve Paxton, who seems to have a 40-year association with aikido as well. I was really fascinated, there were loads of interesting connections with aikido movement, implicit and explicit, and I just wanted to know whether anybody here has done more in-depth work with this material, or with Paxton himself? What were your impressions, was it useful for your aikido, and in what way? Would be great to hear about experiences, on the forums or via pm.
Thanks
