Learning by Movement Performance

The aim of this paper is to describe a movement performance therapy approach based on a movement analysis of learners. The movement therapy, which considers class performances as “learning as life-text,” is grounded on the class performances and processes (Orth, 2011; Halprin, 2012). Learners, as a society member of the school, are also the subject of the social development. Therefore, this study focuses on the mutual performance formed by the inter-related body, mind and society. They would know what the obstacles of movement performances are and how the remedy is working for their internalized and oppressed movement performances. Learners were resourced to self-heal from the class performances as “learning as life-text.” Consequently, they became the subject of learning through the changing process in them.
