DanzaMedicina is a project that has traveled across 15 countries and impacted more than five thousand women around the world.

An experimental laboratory for women that weaves together clinical practice, somatic research, body arts, rites of subjectivation, critical-political awareness, and radical-emancipatory imagination.

In the face of anthropo-phallo-ego-logocentric, colonial, patriarchal, and capitalist logics of subjection, we encourage witch-like gestures capable of re-enchanting life as acts of disobedience — disruptive and insurgent movements against a world project that seeks to make us ill, exhausted, domesticated, anesthetized, alienated, and hopeless.

We dance to break pacts, dismantle norms, disrupt hegemonic modes of producing desire and the unconscious, and dissolve contracts of subservience and subjection collectively and compulsorily imposed upon us.

To reclaim the creative and desiring body requires more than a clinic that negotiates with conservative forces. It demands rupture: madness, chaos, flesh, the ridiculous, rage, the oneiric.

An investigation that moves across the borders of womanhoods, feminisms, psychomagic, struggles, and encantarías, where we weave a rhizomatic web of (em)bodied affections for the regeneration of a latent collective feminine biosphere.

We dance from the center of the bones, from the dark cave of the womb, from the skin beneath the skin — territories from which our memories cannot be negotiated.

We dance to travel unusual somatic, neural, and pulsional pathways so that, even in times of dystopia and barbarism, we may return to feminine bodies their lucidity, the erotic, rage as a resource, the pathways and ointments of creation and expression — reaching the height of the potency that life, in each new moment, calls us to embody.

What Morena is proposing is a rupture in history — revolutionary. Not in the sense of innovation, but in the sense of struggle that arises from the entrails. A desire to revolt, something much stronger than any political theory could ever contain.

We move away from the idea of the body as something to be controlled, perfected, or performed. We soften the jaw, release the masks of false smiles, and breathe into our own truth. For so long, we have held back sensations. Dance became a place to reclaim the wild language of the body: the animal, the muscle, the brutal, the seed, the bacteria, the child who plays.

Marajna Lemm (Montenegro/Germany)

In dance, everything becomes wilder, more childlike, more raw flesh. A place where violence can be addressed at its roots. Little by little, I feel that love tries to remove this colonial language from my mouth, trying to reveal itself as a sound between silence and tears — the tongues that those in power cannot access.

Ingrid Silva (Brasil)

It was a deep process of surrendering and connecting with myself - in which I was guided throughout my shadows, traumas, fears, my pain and vulnerabilities; into a process of rebirth, acceptance and self love - It just changed my life forever and I thank Morena from all my heart!

My experience with DanzaMedicina was so wonderful that I cannot even express. I knew the emotional traumas I carried with me throughout life, but certainly I did not think they were still so present . As we started working on the workshops of DanzaMedicina we subtly started gliding towards unimaginable places of our lives, where there was still unresolved childhood pain that was held within for more than 60 years.

Norma Krause, Argentina

I was able to release tension, sadness, guilt and fear through the practices we did together.   I was able to see the similarities we share as women, the battle we fight separately when we should and could be doing it together. I felt love, support and strength.
