Heart of the Matter
Finding healthy ways to connect with our own bodies.
Heart of the Matter is a narrated dance performance for elementary school children, grades 2-5, developed to bring awareness to Anti-bullying and to encourage self-awareness and positive body image. Inspired by the children’s book, Full Mouse/Empty Mouse, by Dr. Dina Zeckhausen, this new dance theatre work that enables students to:
-
identify their feelings
-
investigate solutions when being bullied
-
develop an understanding of feelings and stress on the body
-
gain basic insights into the connection between feelings and bullying
Heart of the Matter raises awareness and creates an accessible approach to a complex topic.
