Rhythm and Movement
Kathryn Woodard's research has explored a range of topics related to global piano music, rhythm perception, and music pedagogy.
Several of her past articles can be found at: www.soniccrossroads.com/research
Her article, "Recovering Disembodied Spirits: Teaching Movement to Musicians," published in the British Journal of Music Education discusses the neuromuscular processes in learning music and the importance of training movement in music lessons. Kathryn draws on her own experiences learning the Alexander Technique and Body Mapping and uses case studies from her own teaching to illustrate concepts. Access the article here
