In this episode, I sit down with Henna Raisinghani to talk about how choreographic spaces can become places of both creativity and care. We explore the world of dance movement psychotherapy and discuss practical tools that support dancers’ well-being while encouraging innovation. Together, we share ideas on how rehearsal rooms and performance spaces can be transformed into environments that not only inspire artistry but also nurture the people within them.
