Written in a series of essays, from single-paragraph meditations to expansive chapters, the book weaves together personal anecdotes, creative theory, and movement-based wisdom. Lerman draws on Heisenberg's uncertainty principle to frame a central question: how do we hold both shape and momentum--form and change--at once? With insight and generosity, she explores creativity as a life practice, rooted in embodied knowledge and accessible to all. Witches from her decade-long project \u003ci\u003eWicked Bodies\u003c\/i\u003e appear throughout as fierce, funny guides, helping readers stay curious and grounded. Essays are grouped in thematic sections--lived experience, kinship, rejection, reflection, and radical imagination--culminating in an \"Atlas of Creative Tools(R),\" a practical and poetic resource. Bridging dance, education, politics, and spiritual practice, \u003ci\u003eShape and Momentum\u003c\/i\u003e offers tools for navigating instability and making a more relational world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLIZ LERMAN is an Institute Professor at the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts at Arizona State University.
