The course will introduce the social and cultural foundations of dance and the arts in healing and how this has influenced current understanding of dance/movement therapy and counseling. Included will be a creative exploration of the student's culturally influenced beliefs about health, illness and healing. The impact of power, prejudice and oppression on the provision of mental health services to diverse populations will also be examined. Participation in community-based cultural dance events will be central to the learning experience.
