本文利用德雷福斯和德勒兹的著作探讨了学习具身知识的过程。尽管地理学家已经开始承认具身知识在社会生活中的作用，但关于如何学习这些技能的深入案例研究却很少。本文提供了泰式瑜伽按摩（TYM）的案例研究，这是一种在英国越来越受欢迎的“补充和替代疗法”。在概述了案例研究之后，本文探讨了在英国作为 TYM 凝聚在一起的一套技术的形式化、记录和争议的文化地理学。然后，本文探讨了学习技能的混乱的物质地理，并简要考虑了更高级的从业者如何体验他们的熟练实践。 (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
This paper explores the process of learning an embodied knowledge using the work of Dreyfus and Deleuze. Although geographers have begun to acknowledge the role of embodied knowledges in social life, there have been few in-depth case studies of how these skills are learned. This paper offers a case study of Thai Yoga massage (TYM), a 'complementary and alternative therapy' which is growing in popularity in the United Kingdom. Having outlined the case study, the paper explores the cultural geographies of the formalisation, documentation and contestation of the set of techniques that have come to cohere in the UK as TYM. The paper then interrogates the messy corporeal geographies of learning a skill, and briefly considers how more advanced practitioners experience their skilled practice. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
