| Annotation | The authors explain what dance therapy means for people with dementia, and the role it can play as an integral part of person-centred care. They discuss some of the benefits of dance therapy they have observed: enlivening or waking the body (and the self); reconnecting to a sense of personal control or power; reconnecting to memory; connecting or reconnecting to others; and connecting to meaningful experience.
