Episode 66: Dancing with Trauma

DanceWell Podcast

Trauma is a complex experience that varies from individual to individual. Research suggests that dancers experience PTSD at higher rates than athletes or the general population. In this episode, dance-movement therapist, Erica Hornthal, explains a bit about her field, and we discuss ways in which the body houses trauma as well as how dance can be both problematic and curative to people who are living with trauma.
