Dominique Dances offers our students a balance of well-being using the expression of dance. Begin a journey to unite your mind and body for a more healthy and happy life. This is about you and the vital need for self-care.

These methods are key to bolstering control and coping with:

  • Stress
  • Anxiety
  • Insomnia
  • Depression
  • Interpersonal issues such as family conflict or domestic violence
  • Low self-esteem

Your thoughts and feelings impact your physical health and vice versa. How you treat your body will influence your mental health. Your mind and body are constantly communicating and influencing one another.

Dance therapy strengthens this connection. It presents an authentic, physical expression of emotion.

Find purpose in life while improving your mental and physical health. Take control of your thoughts and emotions. Boost your immune system. Tune in to your self-awareness and rejuvenate your body.

Dance is more than a form of exercise it is an expression of freedom.

A Message From Dominique

The most rewarding part of sharing mindful and joyful movement is witnessing someone else coming into their own sense of personal strength, balance, and joy. Finding and owning my own strength and resilience took me the better part of my life. Witnessing this transformation in others brings me happiness and a deep sense of personal connection.

Our relationship with our own bodies is the most vitally important one we will ever have. Most of us tend to ignore what our bodies have to tell us.

Moving to music can be a powerful way of communicating with all parts of our complex selves. It allows us to release tension and anxiety and offers a powerful way to integrate the complex connections within our minds, bodies, and emotions.

Joyful systemic movement helps us to move emotional energy that can otherwise become blocked, harming us. Multiple accepted therapeutic practices are based on this premise and offer a significant degree of physical and emotional healing.

It is also important to remember that our bodies are already in a constant state of healing. All the estimated 37 trillion cells in our bodies are humming with energy & purpose. It is our responsibility, in partnership with our bodies, to help create the most supportive and loving environment possible for this healing to continue.

Come move with me as we explore health, joy and oneness with ourselves and others in a safe, no judgment community that welcomes all bodies — the world needs all the healing that we can generate.

Dance is more than a hugely enjoyable way to improve your physical toning and mobility.  It is your direct line to the expression of personal power, energetic and emotional balance, and freedom.
