The way you give examples, repeat main terms, and encourage your students - even when we're not present with you - really excellent teaching! Thank you!

The perfect lesson on Laban's 8 Efforts done in 6 and half minutes! Impressive!

Perfectly done. The first dancer I have seen who really does them correctly and easily distinguishable from each other. Thank you very much!

[gothiccircle]

This is a masterful explanation of the movement types. So clear and helpful! Wonderful and perfect!

I just took an intensive workshop of this technique. The way you explain & demonstrate the working actions here is extremely helpful in better understanding Yat’s approach. Thank you so much for uploading this!

[Skycastle]

What a perfect explained concept! I love it

We're doing an assignment on laban for theatre, this was pretty helpful. thank you!

[anagd]

This is just what I needed. So helpful!!

[dylankelly]

We're using Laban movement efforts for music ensemble conducting. It's really blowing my mind how universally these efforts can be used! Dance, theatre, conducting, ... wow!!!

LMA have always been confused me and it's been year now that I didn't dare to go and read more about it. Luckily my course convener shared your link with me and it all made absolute sense to me. I feel so much in awareness of how my clients and I've been moving since last year as dance movement psychotherapist trainee.

Heavy is the negative of weight. Weight is strong or light. All the motion factors have negatives. You can read further into this by researching Yat’s extension of Laban Movement Psychology

Quite simply the best explanation of the four components and eight efforts. Your charts are amazing. And having you demonstrate each effort in front of your chart gives us all the information we need. I am sharing your video link with my students. Thank you, Tehya.
