Dancing on the Earth : Women's Stories of Healing and Dance

The essays in this dynamic compilation are a testament to dance as a healing art.

Widely interdisciplinary in nature and written by women dancers from around the world, they illustrate a rich array of dance practices, cultures, and disciplines and show how this expressive therapy can be both empowering and exhilarating.

The women's narratives all share a deep appreciation for the connection between mental, spiritual, and physical dimensions, offering dance as a transformative power of renewing and rebuilding that bond.

Both personal and professional, the stories weave a vivid tapestry of lived experiences and insights, balance, and a community healed by dance.
