Dance Therapy with Dance4U

Dance Therapy recognises body movement as an implicit and expressive instrument of communication and expression, it's a creative way of using dance and movement to help the individual deal with emotional, social, physical and psychological issues. 

Anyone! In particular dance therapy may aid development of self-esteem and confidence, assist in building health perceptions of body image, improvement of communication skills verbally or non verbally. 

The Humanistic Approach suggests that humans should be viewed holistically, a persons behaviour is influenced by their environment. Individuals are conscious of past and present, they have the right to make informed decisions concerning self. 

Based on the belief that a persons body movement reflects their pattern of thinking and feeling, dance therapy allows for expression of whole self. The dance therapist will observe and asses the clients movements during session, within an individual or group setting. Dance Therapy works well for those who struggle to communicate verbally.
