Practitioner Self-Care: Using creative embodied approaches – In conversation with a Dance Movement Psychotherapist
These days there is plenty of discussion surrounding the mental well-being of our students both in the studio and in the classroom. But, what about the teachers? It is often said that we are no good to anyone if we don’t take care of ourselves first. How can we shift the conversation and switch the context in so that we are looking inwards, to our own personal wellness? Today's very important discussion will address the mental wellness of the dance educator, and give us some insight into tips, tools and strategies to help us become aware of, manage and maintain our own mental health. Helping us understand the role that self-care plays in the lives of the dance educator in Ms. Celine Butte.
