Event description: There is a rich history connecting movement and health, from extraordinary accounts of physical expressions of symptoms such as choreomania, to ceremonial healing rituals, to dance being used in as useful way to recover from illness, aiding recovery from stroke or helping people living with mental health conditions, in hospital environments and outside of them.
