Bodymapping for Musicians Workshop
(Conferences / Seminars / Lectures) Neuroscientists are increasingly recognizing the importance of mind-body connections in all human activity. In fact, all of us carry neurological "body maps" in our brain that tell us how big or small we are, how we are put together, and how we function. However, when our "maps" don't conform with our actual bodies, we cannot move easily or efficiently. This is truer for no one more than musicians, who require precise fine motor coordination to perform well. Come and discover how to identify your own body map, and how to correct it for optimal performance and injury prevention! Bring your instrument and dress comfortably. Presented by Judy Palac, Associate Professor of Music Education in the MSU College of Music.
