Florice Tanner was one of those lucky few who were able to live, work and study with Martha Russell at her seaside home. Through her efforts and the work of countless others, Creative Motion study has been passed from teacher to student through the years, and continues to this day.
Florice Tanner was a student of Martha Russell and author of "Basic Energies in Wholeness." She was both an educator and a school principal and worked toward applying Creative Motion exercises, techniques and principles to academic areas such as mathematics and communication arts. Several articles relating the results of her research were summarized within volume 2 of the "Journal of Creative Motion."
In short, both academic achievement and cognitive functioning improved in the students involved in Creative Motion.
Her text which includes a variety of exercises entitled "Basic Energies in Wholeness" was edited by Dr. Mary Ann Fritz and was reprinted by the Creative Motion Alliance in 2005.
