MA Dance & Somatic Well-Being is a professional training programme designed to certify professional practitioners in the field of dance and somatic education. The MA promotes the role of somatic awareness and well-being in community and client based contexts, maintaining high standards of professional competence and excellence.

 

Central to this programme is how somatic awareness and aesthetic development enhances self-esteem and how ʽdeep body listeningʼ can engage students and the wider community in new perceptions of Self.  Dance is explored through somatic awareness and is viewed as a site of interconnection and vision. The programme inspires and educates people to live in an informed and educated relationship with Self, Other and community. The transpersonal and interdependent dimensions of community and Self are a focus of study. All sessions are taught in the spirit of self-discovery, non-judgement and heart-centred educative models.
