Dance and Movement Therapy: Healing Through Movement

When words aren’t enough, the body often speaks. Sometimes our stress, fears, and unspoken emotions show up as tension in the shoulders, a tight chest, or restlessness we can’t shake. Dance and Movement Therapy (DMT) creates space to explore and release these emotions—not through talking, but through movement.


Dance and movement therapy at Hibiscus Counselling

At Hibiscus Counselling, we’re excited to offer Dance and Movement Therapy both online and offline (Chennai – multiple locations). These sessions, guided by our trained facilitator Heena Jain, use movement, expression, and creative exploration to help you reconnect with yourself in a safe, supportive environment.



What is Dance and Movement Therapy?

Dance and Movement Therapy is a psychotherapeutic use of movement that supports emotional, cognitive, physical, and social integration. It’s not about performance or learning choreography. Instead, it’s about moving in ways that feel natural to you.

Through movement, breath, and guided exercises, DMT helps you:

  • Reduce stress and anxiety

  • Build confidence and body awareness

  • Explore emotions that may be hard to put into words

  • Improve relationships and communication

  • Feel more grounded and present




Who Can Benefit from DMT?

DMT is for anyone—whether you consider yourself a “dancer” or not. Our clients have found DMT especially useful when dealing with:

  • Anxiety, stress, or burnout

  • Relationship or identity concerns

  • Grief, loss, or major life changes

  • Low self-esteem or confidence issues

  • Emotional blocks that feel “stuck” in the body


Online and Offline Options

Online Sessions: Join from the comfort of your home, with personalized 1-1 guidance.✨ Offline Sessions in Chennai: Experience the energy of movement in-person at our centres in Adyar, Pallavaram, and other partnered spaces.

This flexibility allows you to choose what feels safest and most accessible for you.
