Dance Movement Therapy ®

Dance Movement Therapy® is a specific modality of positive research of well-being and personal evolution, as wellpossibility of treating a plurality of manifestations of psychic, somatic and relational pathology.

Dance Movement Therapy ® has developed in the American continent, in Europe and in other parts of the world, diversifying into a plurality of theoretical, technical and applicative models and orientations.

In our country the first experiences, present from the beginning also in the institutional sphere, date back to the seventies.

Since that time, many associations and training schools have come a long way.

Dance Movement Therapy ®, which is ideally connected to ancient traditions in which dance was a fundamental means in healing practices, proposes again in the current clinical-social contexts the resources of the creative process, dance and movement to promote psychophysical, relational and spiritual integration, well-being and the quality of life of the person.
