Laban
Laban was a Swiss dance artist and movement theorist who developed a system called Laban Movement Analysis. This method helps understand and observe human movement by categorizing it into qualities like effort, shape, space, and body. It’s used in dance, therapy, and performance to analyze how people move, express themselves, and connect with others. Essentially, Laban’s work provides a language and framework to describe and improve movement, allowing for better communication, training, and insight into physical expression across various fields.
