Sole Expression™

—

A trauma-informed therapeutic intervention for youth who have experienced abuse and/or exposure to violence, who are looking to better understand the impact of their experiences and build healthy coping strategies using Hip-hop dance and movement.

The group will run for 10 consecutive weeks on Thursday evenings from 5pm-7:45pm at Boost CYAC. It will be facilitated by two dance instructors from Unity Charity and a trauma therapist from Boost CYAC

No dance experience is needed!

Boost CYAC, in collaboration with Drs. Jennifer Martin and Jennifer Lapum from Ryerson University and UNITY are conducting a study to: Determine if, and how, a 10-week dance program reduces feelings related to trauma among youth who are waiting for services and have experienced abuse and/or been exposed to family violence.
