Psychodance Workshop at Cognitiva
What is psychodance?
Psychodance is a psychotherapeutic technique rooted in the psychodrama framework, which uses the body and the movement as preferential communicational vehicles and the music to support this communication.
To understand this therapeutic practice from a theoretical perspective, elements of psychodrama (theoretical and technical framework) have been integrated, as well as contributions of Neurophysiology (organic understanding of the processes that support the movement and the phenomena that are unchained) and ethology (study of space, distance, territory and the signals system's characteristic of the species).
Понястоящем психодансът се разглежда като най-добрата телесна психотерапия, като е особено изявен при психопатии и всички психопаталогични процеси, които компрометират сериозно вербалната комуникация: от една страна с индивиди, за които думата работи като трудно преодолима комуникационна бариера; от друга страна, пациенти, които имат затруднения да изразяват своите чувства и конфликти вербално.
By eliminating verbal communication, we induce the person to use their body as a vehicle of communication, paying more attention to it and putting it in activity. This is one aspect that allows the subtle mobilization of the protagonist to catch him off guard and lead him into an experience that once started is difficult to control. This experience facilitates the release and manifestation of each person's body shapes, and it is from observation and reading that we research its contents.
