What is Creative Motion?

Creative Motion is the study of the efficient use of physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional energy which occurs naturally in the body. Creative Motion stirs up and makes that sense of the moving force we call music more tangible, and allows us to experience it within the body and realize it through a performance.


Based upon the universal principles and applied to music, we teach the artistry of music-making from the inside-out. Creative Motion, once mastered, becomes an integral part of your musical life. It is there whenever you need it, guiding you wherever a musical challenge presents itself. Creative Motion begins with your talent, then builds around it a cohesive union of body and mind techniques. These techniques, when efficiently and unselfconsciously engaged, enable you to move beyond the limitations of your talent. It is not unusual to hear a Creative Motion student perform with unexpected maturity. In fact, it is the norm!
"Creative Motion . . .
A concept as old as energy itself,
applied to music and to living.”

- Margaret Allen and Anne Niles, Authors of "Creative Motion" Droke House Publishers © 1971



“Creative Motion focuses on
the source of all musical expression.
To experience the power
of this inner movement into performance
is to engage your own spirit
into a thrilling emotional life!”

-Don Campbell,
author of The Mozart Effect
