Hello, my name is Nita Gyllander. I am a licensed psychotherapist, dance therapist, dance teacher and supervisor. My specialties are children, youth and young adults with ADHD and depression but I have over the years also been working a lot with vastly different problems in adults and the elderly. I use both image, conversation, music and dance. During the years 2000-2005 I was employed as a dance therapist and research assistant in a research project where we tried dance therapy for children and youth with mental health problems in child and adolescent psychiatry. When I saw the joy and power of dance gave the sick, I realized that this was a great way to bring new vitality in a body that may be about to give up and stagnate in disease. I have been a keynote speaker at research conferences in Pforzheim 2006th Lectured and held workshops at ECArTE, European Arts Therapies Conference 2005 (Greece) and 2007 (Estonia). In Sweden at Psychotherapy Fair, Relationship Fair, Nordic Young Adults days and more. I teach at the University of Stockholm and the University College of Dance.

Aurora Werberg
Dragi studenti, Ma numesc Aurora Werberg. Timp de 20 de ani am fost prima balerina la Opera Romana din Bucuresti sub numele de Aurora Rotaru. Dupa ce m-am stabilit in Suedia, am absolvit facultatea de Dans Terapie la University College of Dance Stockholm unde am fost si profesoara la catedra de balet si repertoriu. Dupa absolvirea facultatii am deschis propriul meu studio de Dans Terapie unde lucrez cu pacienti cu diferite probleme: autism, mutism selectiv, ADHD, depresie si trauma. Am lucrat de asemenea ca Dans Terapeut pentru Crucea Rosie si Spitalul Universitar din Uppsala. Programul de dans terapie ofera un minunat prilej de a porni pe un drum al cunoasterii - si nu mai putin al cunoasterii de sine - la capatul caruira vom stapini un nou limbaj de comunicare cu forta de vindecare. Va astept cu drag sa facem aceasta calatorie impreuna. Aurora

Analiza Dansului
Pentru a putea analiza dansul, studentul trebuie sa detina cunostinte anterioare despre istoria dansului (unde, cind si cum au aparut difereritele forme de dans). Modulul va dezvolta capacitatea de a analiza dansul din trei unghiuri diferite: al interpretului, al coregrafului si al publicului. Cursul va cuprinde si modelul propus de Profesor June Layson care consta in analiza 1) a categoriilor (gen, stil), 2) a componentelor (interpret, costum, scenografie), 3) a miscarii (in studio vom prelua in corpul nostru miscarea dominanta din coregrafie pe care o vom analiza utilizind sistemul Laban) si 4) a formei spectacolui (relatia dintre interpret, miscare sunet si spatiu). Prin analiza spectacolelor se va da studentului posibilitatea sa-si dezvolte capacitatea de a reflecta asupra dansului in multiplele lui forme. Examinarea consta in proba scrisa.

Analysis of Dance
To be able to analyze dance students must have prior knowledge of dance history (where, when and how did the different forms of dans appear). The module will enhance the ability to analyze dance from three different angles: of the interpreter, of the choreographer and of the public. The module will also include the model introduced by Professor June Layson consisting in the analysis 1) of categories (genre, style), 2) of elements (performer, costume, scenography), 3) of movement (in the studio we will mirror in our bodies the dominant movement of the choreography and we will analyze the relationship between emotion and movement), 4) of the shape of the performance (the relationship between performer, movement, sound and space). By analyzing productions the student will have the opportunity to develop the ability to reflect upon dance in its multiple forms. Evaluation: written exam.

Analiza Miscarii
Acest curs urmareste dezvoltarea abilitatii studentului de a intelege dinamic stuctura si functia miscarii utilizind metodele Laban si LAM. Sistemul Laban de analiza a miscarii numit Effort analizeaza relatia corpului cu cei patru factori de baza a miscarii: spatiu, timp, greutate/forta si energie. Studentul va exemplifica si aprofunda in studio fiecare factor de miscare care se materializeaza in doua dimensiuni de polaritati diferite. Sistemul LAM (Lamb Movement Analysis) ofera dans terapeutilor un mod de a analiza propriile lor miscari si de a identifica propriile preferinte si antipatii in miscare. Acest sistem organizeaza ceea ce este deja cunoscut si integrat la nivelul corpului, facind legatura intre perceptia kinestetic internalizata si intelegerea cognitiva a comunicarii prin miscare. Evaluare: prin miscare in studio si proba scrisa.

Movement Analysis
This module seeks to enhance the ability of the student to understand dynamically the structure and function of movement by using the Laban and LAM methods. The Laban system of movement analysis called Effort investigates the relationship of the body with the four basic elements of movement: space, time, strength and energy. The student will exemplify and practice in the studio each element of movement represented in two dimensions by opposite properties. The LAM (Lamb Movement Analysis) system offers the dans therapist a method for analyzing his/her own movements and to identify his/her own movement preferences and aversions. The method organizes that which is already known and internalized at the level of the body, establishing a connection between the internal kinesthetic perception and the cognitive understanding of the communication through movement. Evaluation: movement in the studio and written exam.
