description: \nA story of resilience, joyful creativity, and the empowering potential of dance \n \n﻿\n \nMoving through Life traces the journey of influential dancer, teacher, and choreographer Naomi Goldberg Haas. Sharing her lifelong love of movement, her experiences as a dancer with chronic health conditions, and accessible exercises from her work with dancers of all ages and abilities, Goldberg Haas encourages readers to integrate dance into their lives and to move with awareness, creativity, and joy.\n \n﻿\n \nGoldberg Haas describes her early years as an emerging dancer at the School of American Ballet and how she explored and reveled in many dance forms throughout her career. She takes readers from a focus on fundamentals such as balance, strength, and flexibility to a deeper understanding of dance as a transformational community practice. With a unique perspective informed by navigating a degenerative neuromuscular disease, Goldberg Haas conveys a positive message: dance is an opportunity for renewal and growth at all stages of life. \n \nAlongside Goldberg Haas's story, this book provides insights and step-by-step instructions from the Movement Speaks(R) curriculum developed by Goldberg Haas for her nonprofit Dances for a Variable Population, a program that brings dance to older adults in New York City. Readers will learn from Goldberg Haas to exercise both their bodies and minds in ways that work for them. They will discover for themselves what Goldberg Haas's life illustrates--the value of dance in improving physical, mental, and social wellbeing. \n \n﻿\n \nIn a memoir of personal struggle, resilience, and celebration, Goldberg Haas portrays many of the changes that can come with aging and embraces the empowering potential of dance. From childhood memories to moments of epiphany later in life, this account from a leading figure in the dance community shows how movement can enrich and improve the lives of everyone. \n
