Growing Edge integrates the principles of Dance/Movement Therapy (DMT). We weave together evidence-based somatic tools and trauma-informed care to create space for genuine transformation. Movement grounds the body, releases stress, and strengthens connection.
1. Prevent Burnout: We partner with leaders to address the systemic root causes (e.g., unsustainable policies and workloads) that sustain a burnout culture.
2. Strengthen Connection: We help build trust and empathy by teaching teams to listen beyond words.
3. Cultivate Grounded Leadership: We empower leaders to model emotional awareness rooted in the body.
4. Foster Collective Resilience: We champion a shift in how resilience is defined. In a world shaped by collective trauma and systemic oppression, true resilience is a shared responsibility. We shift the focus from 'building' individual endurance to nurturing equitable, supportive communities.
When you partner with us, your organization gains:
1. Greater Stress Management Skills: Teams gain stronger awareness of the mind-body connection while learning practical tools to weave into their daily work.
2. Improved Retention and Wellbeing: Wellbeing, genuine connection, and psychological safety become the foundation for a thriving workforce.
3. Deeper Trust and Collaboration: Movement-based activities strengthen relational skills, group cohesion, and communication while creating shared rituals of rest and connection.
Studies show DMT significantly reduces stress, anxiety, and depression
across diverse populations worldwide.
