In order to actively learn and practice the strokes, each student must purchase, on their own and have with them in class, one 20-21 inch long doll. the doll may be as small as 18 inches. It is recommended that all or part of this doll be made of flexible plastic. The torso may be plastic or soft filled cloth. The head should be all plastic and the limbs, mostly plastic. The hands and feet should be plastic, and if you canfind a doll that has at least one hand all or partially open, that is very nice. Eyes can be open or closed. Please, no dolls with sound-effects, and if you can find an unscented doll, that's a plus, but not mandatory. The doll must have clothing that can be easily removed and replaced. Your doll may be found at most large toy stores. Regardless of the brand, it is important that you acquire a doll that most suits you. This doll will be yours to model the strokes on, and it will become a very personal tool that reflects you.
