In "Rhythm: Synchronization of Body and Mind", Katan analyzes the rhythmic feeling in dancing as an evaluation of the synchronization between intentionality and current sensory stimuli. The chapter follows the physical procedures of entering a movement flow, according to Gaga instructions. Following the case study of multitasking movements, the chapter inquires into the capacity of dancers to lead and feel parallel flows of movement simultaneously. The chapter concludes with an exploration into the rhythmic groovy feeling of dancers, analyzing it as an inner-embodied capacity to follow the momentum of movement and controlling it simultaneously.
