    The authors proves that integration over a \(G\)-manifold \(M\) can be reduced to integration over a minimal section \(\Sigma\) with respect to an induced weighted measure and integration over a homogeneous space \(G/N\). The formula obtained is related to integration formulas for polar actions and some weight functions are calculated. For the case of a compact Lie group acting on itself via conjugation, a classical result of H. Weyl is obtained.
