Through a series of movement invitations questioning what is a human body and how it relates to the environment the book invites us to challenge our human-centered perspective of the world and to learn to trust our moving body. as a valid form of questioning and knowing.  

 

How to Be Feral will be published in 2024 by Triarchy Press.
