Moshe Feldenkrais on posture:

“From the dynamic point of view, every stable posture is one of a series of positions that constitute a movement…”  “Posture is therefore describing action, and is a dynamic term.”


“… A tree that has grown upright will bend its top in whatever direction the wind is blowing. In the same way good upright posture is that from which a minimum muscular effort will move the body with equal ease in any desired direction.”
