Fundamentals of DMT: Foundation Module 1

In September, 2020, a 2-day DMT Foundational Training Module will be offered, followed by five 3-day intensive training modules in Dance Movement Therapy in 2021. These modules are part of a year long Certificate in Dance Movement Therapy.

The Foundation Module (offered 26th and 27th of September, 2020: Saturday & Sunday 9.30am-5.00pm) can be attended as a ‘one off’ workshop without any prior experience (register above). This weekend training will introduce participants to foundational skills and practices in the field of Dance Movement Therapy. The weekend will be highly experiential, with many opportunities to experience a variety of DMT approaches firsthand. Relevant theory and concepts will be presented to support the experiential learning.

You will also have a chance to see some DMT in action via video presentations of work with clients, to have a glimpse of where this work may lead you! A wonderful opportunity to gain a fuller understanding of the field, and if it is the direction you want to head in. For Professionals working in a variety of therapeutic fields, this training will give you a grounding in movement based therapy and support your integration of some basic DMT tools into existing work.

If you are interested in applying for the Certificate, please register for and attend the Foundation Module. Then you may apply for the 2021 Certificate after completing this module if you choose to. In some circumstances such as for International Students, we will consider an application prior to completing the Foundation Module.
