1980 Toronto Workshop Transcript

The Toronto workshop transcript is a unique document as currently it is the only transcription we have of Moshe teaching to the public in the last years of his life. The style of the Moshe’s teaching in this course is a prime example of his later teaching style, where he goes in depth into one action as it slowly evolves into surprising directions. In this fascinating course you can see a more careful emphasis on the how of the process and the use of attention than in his earlier work with the public. Moshe’s creativity is on full display as weaves together unusual lessons, favorites taught in innovative ways and makes the impossible possible. The transcript was carefully edited by practitioner Elaine Yoder.
