  Secondly, "technique" does not usually match the body's natural 
movement, because it is first and foremost a *stylization* of body 
movement. 

(On a related note: "equilibrium, axis, flexibility, strength"-- these 
are Not natural properties of the body. These are acquired skills, and 
not everyone acquires them, let alone works hard to cultivate & maintain 
them.)
  Is someone wouldn't "acquire" equilibrium, axis, etc., he/she will never be able to raise even an arm...
  Equilibrium, Axis etc.  are universal physical properties. All  bodies have them, if inanimate or not, in either a static or dynamic  (such as dance, although this is a a stretch) state. Many of the  arguments espoused in this thread "fall on their head" because of the  fallacy expressed above, and sadly reflect the general ignorance of,  and even the attacks upon, the scientific principles...
