A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

One of the world's legendary artists and bestselling author of The Creative Habit shares her secrets—from insight to action—for harnessing vitality, finding purpose as you age, and expanding one's possibilities over the course of a lifetime in her newest New York Times bestseller Keep It Moving.
At seventy-eight, Twyla Tharp is revered not only for the dances she makes—but for her astounding regime of exercise and nonstop engagement. She is famed for religiously hitting the gym each morning at daybreak, and utilizing that energy to propel her breakneck schedule as a teacher, writer, creator, and lecturer. This book grew out of the question she was asked most frequently: "How do you keep working?"

Keep It Moving is a series of no-nonsense mediations on how to live with purpose as time passes. From the details of how she stays motivated to the stages of her evolving fitness routine, Tharp models how fulfillment depends not on fortune—but on attitude, possible for anyone willing to try and keep trying. Culling anecdotes from Twyla's life and the lives of other luminaries, each chapter is accompanied by a small exercise that will help anyone develop a more hopeful and energetic approach to the everyday.

Twyla will tell you what the beauty-fitness-wellness industry won't: chasing youth is a losing proposition. Instead, Keep It Moving focuses you on what's here and where you're going—the book for anyone who wishes to maintain their prime for life.

      Dancer/choreographer Twyla Tharp's optimism and practicality shine through in her engaging narration of this inspirational audiobook. Listeners will find themselves nodding along with her helpful anecdotes and pragmatic recommendations for a purposeful and rewarding approach to everyday life. While Tharp's phrasing can be slightly awkward, and her pacing halting, it is a genuine pleasure to hear her speak her own words rather than to read them on the page. This audiobook is intended for listeners of all ages, but 78-year-old Tharp includes her thoughts on the aging process. She wants listeners to challenge the "learned helplessness" that can come with age, and her positivity is infectious. Exercises are included to help listeners incorporate her advice into their routines. This is an audiobook to revisit again and again. M.J.
