Bartenieff Fundamentals are a set of principles for "corrective body movement"[1] developed by Irmgard Bartenieff, who studied with Rudolf Laban and colleagues in Germany (1925). After coming to the United States in the 1940s and becoming a physical therapist, Bartenieff developed the method in the form of a set of exercises, based on concepts and principles of kinesiological functioning, that can be extended into all types of movement possibilities. Bartenieff in developing this work fused her studies in both Laban movement analysis with Physiotherapeutic principles and the influence of both is a strong component of the Fundamentals.
The Fundamentals are usually taught in the context of, and alongside, other aspects of Laban Movement Analysis and are considered by many to be an expansion of the Body category of this work.
