What is Healing Dance?

Healing Dance is a powerful and beautiful aquatic technique developed by Alexander George in 1993. It consists of ten trainings. In seven, techniques are taught in which the receiver remains on the surface of the water. The three remaining trainings are subaquatic, featuring a variety of submergings. The guiding philosophy of the work is that...   ...movement is the "medicine" and in the experience of "received dance" the healing process in the body is activated.

Healing Dance^® offers a variety of trainings for personal growth and professional certification as a Healing Dance Practitioner or Therapist.
