What's On

This participatory workshop uses dance and creative movement as tools to place well-being at the center, with a focus on enhancing the emotional and physical health of ICS professionals, other healthcare workers, and the adult population. Dance is Health! invites participants to set aside gender roles and stereotypes, focusing instead on what each body needs to express, share, and coexist in a more inclusive and respectful way. In dance, there is no judgment, no error — only creativity and the opportunity to reconnect with the body in a sensory, expressive, and playful way, beyond analytical thinking. The workshop will be held in the main hall of the Catalan Health Institute (Barcelona) and led by Sílvia Cepero Domínguez, professional dancer, facilitator, and founder of the contemporary dance company El Desvío. ICS and El Desvío previously collaborated on the pilot arts-in-health project “Dance and Emotional Support in Situations of Gender Violence”, which engaged female ICS professionals in the first half of 2025

Incertesa Park is a text-based theater performance that reflects the concerns of people with Parkinson’s, written and directed by Montse Butjosa, with the active participation of occupational therapist Montse Gabaldà. The performance arose naturally from the participants’ needs after beginning theater workshops. It has a duration of 50 minutes and is followed by a post-show discussion. The performance is staged by people with Parkinson’s and is based on interviews and collaborative work sessions with the participating actors during a theater workshop in 2023. The project was initiated thanks to the LLetra Prize (Prudenci Bertrana) 2022 Edition awarded to Sofía Malagón, a nurse and Parkinson’s patient who spearheaded the initiative.
