The pilot project aimed to scientifically measure the effects of dance and movement psychotherapy for managing depression and anxiety in adolescents from vulnerable populations in the country. For this purpose, a pilot project was conducted with 70 adolescents from socioeconomic strata 0, 1, and 2 in Cartagena de Indias. The intervention lasted for 3 months. Dance and Movement Psychotherapy sessions involved various exercises using movement in a psychotherapeutic way, as a creative process that promotes emotional, cognitive, social, and physical integration. The improvement of depression and anxiety symptoms was confirmed by 45% in a study conducted in collaboration with Dr. José Posada Villa.
