Featuring over a thousand updated illustrations and revised anatomical sequencing, this book bridges the gap between static anatomy and dynamic motion, making it an indispensable resource for professionals and enthusiasts in art, dance, fitness, and martial arts. ## Description Anatomy of Movement presents a dynamic, integrated approach to the study of the physical structures of the musculoskeletal system and their functional relationship to the movements of the human body. In clear and concise text illustrated with more than a thousand graphic drawings, the author guides the reader on a lively tour of the muscles, bones, ligaments and joints of the arms, legs and trunk. The focus throughout the book is on anatomy not for its own sake, but in its functional relationship to the actual movements of the body in dance, exercise, and other physical disciplines. In this newly-revised edition, a majority of the thousand-plus illustrations are new or have been modified by the author from the original edition. The text has also been updated, and the sequencing of the presentation of the musculoskeletal anatomy has been revised in part. Review: a great reference book - I got this book because of my interest in portraying the human figure in fine art and my interest in the human form as a martial artist. The human body is a complex unit and there isn't really a way to learn about it without a lot of study, but this book is broken down into smaller pieces and shouldn't be too difficult for anyone with a sincere interest to understand. The index is useful and provides quick reference to various structures. The illustrations have a good balance between detail and simplicity for understanding. For artists without a basic knowledge of surface forms, I would suggest getting an additional reference that also shows the forms of bones and muscles as they fit together. There are illustrations showing the full figure, but they are designed more to show the movement than to show how the muscle affects form. Artists may also be disappointed by the lack of any description of head and facial muscles. People interested in general anatomy should know that only bones and muscles, ie. structures that affect movement, are explained in this book. For me personally, I have found it very useful to learn the specific purposes of bones and muscles to help understand how they affect the dynamic form of the human body. It has also assisted my martial training by furthering my knowledge of how the human body does and does not move effectively. Review: An Introduction - I liked the drawings, which were clear and simplified and yet detailed. Some other books on anatomy were too ambitious in their figures or photos and led to confusion with too much detail. The movement descriptions were helpful in understanding how all the pieces operated and fit together. I wanted more direct implications for dance movement considerations, exercises and stretches. However, it was an introductory tomb, so I will use it in conjunction with more dance specific books. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #183,628 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #100 in Massage (Books) #235 in Medical Anatomy #388 in Anatomy (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 501 Reviews | ## Images ![Anatomy of Movement (Revised Edition) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81bBZHCshQL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ a great reference book *by S***Y on December 20, 2008* I got this book because of my interest in portraying the human figure in fine art and my interest in the human form as a martial artist.

Some other books on anatomy were too ambitious in their figures or photos and led to confusion with too much detail. The movement descriptions were helpful in understanding how all the pieces operated and fit together. I wanted more direct implications for dance movement considerations, exercises and stretches.

The book seems best suited to readers who already have some experience studying anatomy. It then serves as a great refresher, touchstone, and unique re-integrator of points of reference that have been forgotten, mis-understood or misplaced in the memory. I found the point of view elegant and the organization of the information flowed in a useful way that I found simple to follow and understand. This also makes it easier to bookmark and refer to. I'm very glad to have this book as part of my working collection of reference books and study guides. ## Frequently Bought Together - Anatomy of Movement - Pilates Anatomy: A Manual for On- and Off-Road Travel - Pilates' Return to Life Through Contrology --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2259172-anatomy-of-movement-revised-edition](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2259172-anatomy-of-movement-revised-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
