Why Dance?
Participation in dance improves physical, mental, and social health. This dance program was co-created by a team including, members of the HIV+ community and the Groovement Dance Program and support is provided by the Fitness, Aging, and Stress (FAST) lab at the University of British Columbia, led by the Principal Investigator Dr. Eli Puterman in the School of Kinesiology. Funding for this program comes from the Canadian Institutes for Health Research.
