Synopsis
Mabel Todd’s The Thinking Body (1937) still stands today as the classic study of posture and movement that established many of the founding principles of somatic movement education. The book was based on the concurrent study of physics, mechanics, anatomy, and physiology. Since the original edition of The Thinking Body became part of the public domain, several companies have satisfied the demand for the book by offering a variety of reprints. In 2021, TBI Media developed a meticulous reproduction of Todd’s classic text with features that are not found in other editions, an introduction to Miss Todd’s career written by Pamela Matt, a cover design based on Todd’s original book jacket, and enhanced anatomical illustrations with clarified labeling. Mabel Todd and her assistant teachers gave private lessons to pupils in Boston and New York City in the early 1900s. Todd also taught in the physical education departments of several east coast colleges and universities. Professional performing artists became interested in Todd’s teaching in the 1930s. Barbara Clark and Lulu Sweigard taught their interpretations of Todd’s approach to dancers and actors in the mid-twentieth century, and their students continued to develop the work in the postmodern era. Throughout her career, Todd refused to codify her educational method to “prevent the premature appearance of a school or system which so often spells the end of creative processes.” In the late 1970s, the term "Ideokinesis" became associated with Todd's educational premise.
