This study is a self-study of the exploration by a teacher/ researcher on somatic intelligence in education practice based on the Laban/ Bartenieff Movement Studies/ System, which was described and presented by a co-researcher. Five collaborative interviews with the co-researcher were followed by six analytical sessions using “Moving TAE,” all of which utilized bodily sensation and movement. In the interviews, the teacher/ researcher mentioned that at the core of somatic intelligence is a whole-body learning experience that she calls “Marble,” which is translated through trial and error into a teaching method to make students marble. In Moving TAE, the somatic intelligence of the behaviors of teachers in the classroom was explored, and a theory was generated that included the interaction among the teacher, students, and phenomena within the classroom space. The authors discuss the effectiveness of using bodily sensation and movement to reproduce the experience of the teacher/ researcher in self-study on the theme of somatic intelligence, as well as the significance and points to consider when a co-researcher is present to support verbalization.
