DANCE THERAPY
Movement and gentle rhythm can release stress, develop self awareness, and renew your focus and joy in life.
DANCE THERAPY
So what is dance therapy?
Dance Therapy is based mainly upon the belief that body and mind interact, both conscious and unconscious movement of the person.
Dance therapy is different from other forms of rehabilitative treatments because it allows creative expression and is more holistic, meaning it treats the full person: mind, body, and spirit.
Movement is believed to have a symbolic function and as such can aid in understanding the self.
Dance therapy works to improve social skills, as well as relational dynamics among the clients that choose to participate in it, to better improve their quality of life. Through this form of therapy clients will gain a deeper sense of self-awareness through a meditative process that involves movement, motion, and the realisation of one's body.
Do you need dance experience?
No previous dance experience is required. This is a class with simple movement, working both individually and in groups. The aim of the class is to promote awareness of any tension or stress in the body and to release this through dance, in a fun and collaborative way.
All ages from 16 years up, and all gender identities are catered for and warmly welcomed. There is no upper age limit.
What do I need to wear?
Comfortable clothing soft shoes or trainers.
