Dancing into Wellbeing: A Creative Toolkit for Stress PEMS3978
What happens when we respond to stress by dancing? Embodied movement can
be an amazing source of
nourishment, both in solitude and in community. It allows us to be present as a whole being; simultaneously active and creative. Through a variety
of movement, improvisation and expressive arts activities, you’ll focus on integrating physical, emotional, cognitive, spiritual and social well-being. No prior dance experience is needed as there is no “wrong” way to move.
