Founded in England in 1959, the International Council of Kinetography Laban
is a non-profit international organization.
Its members practise the system of movement and dance notation originated
by Rudolf Laban, known as Kinetography Laban or Labanotation. This system
is one of the most universally used systems of movement notation for the
documentation of, education about, and research on human movement.
ICKL has about a hundred members and fellows from more than twenty countries.
The aims of ICKL are to promote the use of the system; to increase research
for its development and applications; to act as a deciding body with regard
to the orthography and principles of the system; to support experimental
projects in related areas; to encourage information exchange among centres
and individuals using the system.
Its activities include the publication of conference proceedings, bibliographies
and indexes, and the organization of the biennial conference.
