Today in class one of the groups presented about incorporating dance into the classroom. One of the reasons it is a big help in classrooms is for the kinesthetic learning possibilities. Basically, dance is a "hands-on" way of learning. Another reason incorporating dance into the classroom is because of its stress relief possibilities. Dancing releases endorphins which lowers stress levels and also helps keep you awake.
After learning about bringing dance into the classroom, I began to think of other ways dance could be used as a therapy. I decided to google it and I found the cite for the ADTA or the American Dance Therapy Association. This is the video that describes what they do.
I think that when I am angry next time I might try dancing or having a dance party with friends to relax.
