FAQs
Who should attend this training? 
Any dancer, movement practitioner, therapist, or dance teacher who would like to incorporate the healing power of dance into their current practices.

Once I'm done with the full weekend training, am I expected to teach under Dancin Power?
Not all at all. This training aims to serve as a unique enrichment to help open new opportunities for your arts in health career and journey.
