The training was fantastic, both in terms of training content and interpersonal relationships, and the way Bernice and all the staff accompanied us not only with expertise but also with so much heart!

This was a great course and arrived just at a time when I needed something to boost my confidence and inspire me to follow my love of dance again. The course material was well thought through - embodied all the way - with an enthusiastic team who so obviously LOVE what they do! We did get to dance together on zoom and that works surprisingly well! I found the small groups particularly helpful - being someone who doesn't feel comfortable in a larger group. Having access to that support in the smaller group has continued beyond the training. I feel I am still assimilating the material and as with any of these trainings - you get out of it what you put in...... Thank you DTM! I hope to see you again!

This learning goes so deep. Beyond enriching and impactful. Highly recommend any training with DTM.

The 7-day Facilitator Training in Portugal with Dance The Medicine reminded me how sacred this practice truly is. Each day, we danced up to three times—held in a circle of over 40 people from diverse cultures and paths, all united by the deep knowing that dance transforms. We explored what it truly means to hold space with presence, clarity, and love—not just as a skill, but as a way of being. Before this training, I had already invested in the self-led Facilitator Course and had begun holding events in my community. But this immersive experience opened me up in ways I couldn’t have imagined—it showed me how much more there is to learn, embody, and offer. It deepened my understanding of what it means to serve a dance floor with humility, awareness, and care. I feel incredibly grateful to have been granted a scholarship, which made this life-changing opportunity possible. Being part of the very first Level 2 graduate class was an honour, and co-facilitating a small group during the week allowed me to grow in trust, listening, and presence. A heartfelt thank you to Bernice and her extraordinary team, whose vision, clarity, and love held us all. The structure, content, and behind-the-scenes work were impeccable—crafted with intention, precision, and soul. This path is not just about holding space or facilitating conscious dances. It’s about honouring a potent force—one that moves energy, softens emotional blocks, shapes intentions, and nurtures deep well-being and connection with oneself and others. Throughout the week, I witnessed and felt transformation in everyone—participants and team alike. Just like every dance, the training itself became a big, beautiful hold, where each of us could shift, unfold, and remember who we are. I return home with a clearer vision, a fuller heart, and a deep sense of belonging. I feel truly part of a global community, and I’m committed to sharing what I’ve learned—with a humble and open heart. And yes—Dance is the Medicine.
