Dedicated to improving quality of life through the joy of movement
Welcome to Healing in Motion Dance!
The Healing In Motion program serves as a platform through which university dance students and physical therapy students collaborate in a rehabilitative setting with the goal of improving quality of lives through exercise and artistic movement.
Our program provides rehabilitative ballet classes to participants with neurological conditions that impair movement such as stroke, Parkinson disease, multiple sclerosis, and traumatic brain injury. Our goal is to foster independence, body acceptance, improve motor function, cognitive functioning, and emotional functioning through interdisciplinary ballet pedagogy. We currently host weekly dance classes at the University of Utah L.S. Skaggs Patient Wellness Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. Come dance with us!
