Our Diversity and Inclusion Commitment: 

Embodied Neurobiology is committed to embodied social justice pedagogy. We believe that diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility are not just aspirational principles, but foundational values that must guide the work, practices, and relationships of dance/movement therapists. American Dance Therapy Association’s commitment to these values is reflected in our belief that an inclusive environment sparks innovation, strengthens community bonds, and empowers our members.
