Request for description[edit]

What, exactly, is the Skinner releasing technique? There is no description of what it is, nor are any examples given. Lambtron (talk) 02:39, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Split rationale[edit]

The section on Joan Skinner is filled with irrelevant biographical detail, and should be either deleted or moved to a biographical article. – Scyrme (talk) 03:00, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I tend to think the focus should be on Skinner, and the information about the technique is part of the bigger picture of her career rather than needing a separate article. Are there any views against moving the article to Joan Skinner, and re-formatting? Searches suggest that sources exist to provide notability. Tacyarg (talk) 13:43, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also not sure it is correctly grouped with alternative medicine, as it seems to be a technique used in dance education primarily. Tacyarg (talk) 13:47, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
