How can dance strengthen young people’s mental wellbeing? In this online seminar, Anna Duberg from Örebro University presents Dance for Health, a research-based method that combines movement and social connection. The seminar is part of the D&I NEOlife events series within NEOLAiA.
Dance for Health combines non-demanding physical activity, the joy of movement, and social connection to strengthen young people’s mental well-being. Developed from research, the method has been successfully implemented in many settings across Sweden and the Nordic countries.
During the seminar, Anna Duberg will present the research behind Dance for Health, its core components, and experiences from implementation in practice. You will also learn how Dance for Health can be used in your own setting and what it takes to get started.
