What our students say

“I needed this training more than I had thought. I was able to come to the process exactly as I am, which allowed me to see the possibilities of what I could create with my community. Everyone is so supportive, and it felt great to connect deeper with people in small groups. I am so excited for the dance I’m going to create!”

“You give the right courage, presence and spirit to start!! Like modern midwives of the soul of music and dance, you keep us rising for a connected and compassionate new world!!”

“The Leadership training course is a great one to start with for someone who may not know yet which hat to wear in their events (DJ/Facilitator/Event Organizer) as it covers aspects of all these pretty well and will help you decide if you just want to organize or get more involved. I also liked the transparency from the DTM team in sharing tips and their direct experience of working in all these areas plus the guest speakers were very inspirational too!”
