Dance is a universal component of all human societies, impacting the arts, culture, language, religion, entertainment, and even mating rituals.

Self-care is fast becoming an important topic at Agile conferences, particularly given the 2021 we’ve all had. The mental wellness of individuals, and people together on teams, plays an important role in enabling high-performing organizations. With the move to virtual teams, having a team ‘dance’ can bring a sense of ‘togetherness’ even as we are all physically distant. In this workshop, together we will learn the fundamentals of dance and how to create an engaging team formation activity (for both the physical and virtual world). We will then explore the emerging philosophy of Dance Therapy and how dance can help build and support a culture of self, and team-care.
