Dancing My Mind
Join us for Dancing My Mind – a unique two-day conference exploring how dance affects the brain, from childhood through to old age. In a collaboration between Karolinska Institutet, Balettakademien and the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, we blend inspiring lectures, interactive workshops, and expert panels.
We’ll explore how dance can support – but sometimes also undermine – mental well-being and cognitive function in both community and elite settings, and examine the key elements that can make dance so beneficial for health, including the role of artistry.
Whether you're a dancer, educator, researcher, or health professional, this is a chance to connect, learn, and move with researchers and dance professionals.
Organized by: Åsa N Åström (BA), Sanna Nordin Bates (GIH), Gunnar Bjursell (KI), John Sennet (KI)
Where and when? October 10th-11th at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH) and Balettakademien, in Stockholm.
