Learn the structure & strategy of Functional Integration® (FI)
lessons. Explore the theory and practice of the Method by teaching lessons
around a specific functional theme. Develop an understanding of not just
what to do, but why. Each phase of a lesson is presented in technical
detail with an explanation of the reasoning behind it. Following the same
logic as a musical score, Ideas In Action brings to light
the compositional sense, technical organization and experiential processes
that underlie effective, unforgettable learning.
You will learn, step-by-step, what to notice and how to respond. This
fosters a deep appreciation of the grammar & syntax of lessons necessary
to become a reflective practitioner. The finer points of technique and
self-use are clarified.

"The
DVDs have been great, making it affordable for us to meet our CEU
requirements and giving us an excuse to gather together from far and
wide to share these ideas. The recordings are friendly and accessible.
"I am so enjoying Larry’s thorough, thoughtful teaching
style. I love his sense of humor and approachability. I hope that
one day I'll be able to participate in a live class, but the DVDs
are the next best thing."
