GB Alumni Program

The Alternate Route training program offers classes in dance therapy approved by the American Dance Therapy Association (ADTA) and has been created with the 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Centre. It is designed for dancers and health professionals who want to obtain the professional accreditation of Registered Dance/Movement Therapist (R-DMT) by the ADTA. A unique program in Canada, it offers ADTA-approved dance therapy courses developed in partnership with the 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Centre. Selected students will take 270 hours of classes taught by American and Canadian dance therapists recognized as pioneers in the field. Completing the Alternate Route program, along with other criteria, allows for the replacement of a master's in dance therapy, which is not yet available in Canada.
