The course Dance movement therapy introduces students to methods of therapeutic work through movement and dance. The experiential course presents several currents of contemporary dance therapy as part of body-centered psychotherapy and art therapy. It distinguishes between therapeutic dance (primitive expression, symbolic dance therapy) and dance movement psychotherapy. It also refers to other forms of using dance in psychotherapy, e.g. Cuban psychoballet. The kinship with other body-oriented psychotherapy directions is revealed by the inclusion of contact relaxation and improvisation, bioenergetic massages and the overall focus on deepening contact with one's own body and strengthening positive self-acceptance. The course also has a theoretical part, in which students get to know the roots and current trends of dance movement therapy in the Czech Republic and abroad.
