  • increase in body expression, thanks to the use of the creative process that stimulates the whole personality.

How is all this accomplished?

DMT aims at awakening functional pleasure to arrive at the development of an adequate body image, through the improvement of the spatio - temporal organization, the development of the differentiated and channeled expression of affects, the improvement of impulse control, the structuring of the psycho-bodily and relational boundary.

The work focuses on spontaneous, structured, individual, couple and collective movement often with the use of music and materials.

Central topics are space, rhythm, gesture, shape, color, weight, relationship with each other and with the group through visual, proprioceptive, musical, vocal, graphic - pictorial and verbal stimuli.

The methods used are that of Maria Fux and that in a symbolic key, often integrated.

The dance-motion-therapeutic intervention requires a periodic comparison with the reference therapeutic team and periodically releases individual and / or collective observation cards for users.

Who is it for?

The activity is aimed at all those who have the desire to work on the body-mind union, but also to children, adolescents, adults and the elderly, even with mild, medium and medium serious physical and / or mental disabilities, substance dependence. and psychiatric discomfort.

The meetings are weekly or biweekly and can be held in groups or individually.
Intervention projects are planned on specific objectives and periodic interviews with family members and reference figures of the user.
