Certificate in Dance Movement Therapy

Course at a glance

The Certificate in Dance Movement Therapy is an online training course for people who want to understand the link between movement, feelings, body awareness, and supportive practice. You can study the course material online and take part in live lectures and individual live session-planning meetings.

Enoma offers an Advanced Certificate in Dance Movement Therapy. That option lasts 1 year and has a listed fee of ₹49,900. It as a more intensive course with additional training, more live session-planning meetings and lectures, deeper notes on skills and activities, and further movement work, including Tai Chi. Compare the two options in the section below before deciding.

Course fees scheduled to increase in the near future.

Introduction to the course

Movement is one way people express themselves. A smile, a slow walk, a lifted shoulder, or a small step can say something about how a person feels. Sometimes an emotion is difficult to explain in words. A thoughtful movement activity may offer another way to notice or express it.

Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) explores the link between movement and inner experience. It is not about performing perfect steps. It uses movement with purpose, and may include rhythm, guided activities, observation, and reflection. The process should respect each person’s comfort, needs, culture, and boundaries.

Enoma’s online course introduces DMT and related skills through notes, audio resources, multimedia tutorials, assignments, feedback, and live learning opportunities. Topics named by Enoma include DMT techniques and activities, counselling skills, empathy, body language, listening, somatic healing basics, laughter therapy, focus, discipline, and Tai Chi.

The course may suit people from education, dance, fitness, care, counselling, or community settings. You may want to add a skill to your current work or explore a new area of learning. You do not need to approach DMT as a stage performer; curiosity, care, and willingness to learn are useful starting points.

Students are encouraged to look beyond movement alone. Why choose one activity over another? How can a facilitator offer choice? How can a group be made welcome without pressuring anyone to join in? These questions matter because DMT involves people, emotions, and relationships—not just physical activity.

Enoma says its course directors review the programme and support students through a personal messaging portal and course forum. Live session-planning meetings focus on preparing activities, while live lectures explore selected topics. The aim is to connect study with thoughtful practice.

What is Dance Movement Therapy?

Dance Movement Therapy, often shortened to DMT, uses movement and dance within a supportive process. It pays attention to how movement, body awareness, feelings, and relationships may affect one another. Sessions may involve individual or group activities, depending on the person, setting, and facilitator’s training.

A DMT session is not the same as a normal dance class. In a dance class, the main goal may be to learn a sequence or improve technique. In DMT, movement is used to explore expression, awareness, connection, or a session goal. A person might stretch, shift weight, walk, sway, mirror a movement, or observe. Skilled dancing is not the point.

Everyday pressure can show up physically as tight shoulders, restless feet, or changes in breathing. Movement and body awareness may help a person notice these signals. Some people find gentle movement settling or expressive, but experiences differ; DMT should not be presented as a cure for every emotional or physical difficulty.

A responsible facilitator explains activities, invites consent, respects a person’s choice not to participate, and avoids forcing emotional disclosure. They consider ability, age, background, and personal space, while knowing the limits of their training. If a participant needs help beyond the facilitator’s role, appropriate professional support may be necessary.

This course introduces the ideas and skills that Enoma associates with DMT facilitation. Learners should work within their competence and check what extra qualifications, supervision, safeguards, or permissions may be required in their intended setting.

Benefits of the course

The benefits below describe what learners may gain from studying and practising the course material. They are learning and personal-development aims, not guaranteed health outcomes.

1. A clearer view of DMT. Learn what makes movement-based therapeutic work different from dance for performance, exercise, or entertainment.
2. More ways to plan activities. Explore how to choose movement tasks with a purpose rather than selecting them at random.
3. A stronger body–mind vocabulary. Build language for discussing rhythm, body awareness, expression, attention, and feelings.
4. Better listening habits. Study how careful listening and observation can help a facilitator respond instead of making quick assumptions.
5. A broader movement toolkit. Learn about activities, techniques, and movement practices that may be adapted to different groups and aims.
6. A foundation in empathy. Explore how to approach people with patience, respect, and curiosity rather than judgement.
7. More confidence in preparation. Use planning sessions and assignments to practise organising a session from its opening to its closing reflection.
8. A chance to reflect on your own responses. Notice how you react to movement, group work, feedback, and new ideas as part of learning.
9. A more thoughtful approach to inclusion. Consider how an activity might be changed for different comfort levels and movement abilities.
10. Support while learning online. Use the personal messaging portal and course forum described by Enoma to ask course-related questions and receive guidance.
11. A wider view of related practices. Explore how areas such as Tai Chi, laughter therapy, and somatic awareness are presented within the course.
12. A starting point for further study. Identify which parts of DMT interest you most and where you may need more training or supervised experience.

Outcomes of the course

By the end of the training, students should aim to explain key concepts and show what they have learned through assignments, session planning, and the final assessment. Specific progress will depend on attendance at the relevant sessions, study time, feedback, and practice.

On successful completion, a learner should be better prepared to:

• Describe the purpose and basic principles of Dance Movement Therapy in clear language.
• Distinguish a movement-based therapeutic activity from a dance lesson focused mainly on technique or performance.
• Identify how rhythm, movement, observation, body language, and reflection may be used in a planned session.
• Select and explain the purpose of suitable activities from the material studied.
• Outline a session with a clear opening, a set of planned activities, and a closing reflection.
• Use basic listening and empathy skills when communicating with participants.
• Consider group needs, personal boundaries, consent, and individual comfort before suggesting an activity.
• Discuss how movement activities may need to be adapted for children, adults, older people, or groups in different settings.
• Recognise situations that call for support from a qualified mental health, medical, or other specialist professional.
• Reflect on feedback and use it to improve a future session plan.
• Explain the role and limits of a DMT facilitator in a non-misleading way.
• Complete the course assessment requirements described by Enoma and, if successful, receive its course certificate.

The certificate confirms completion under Enoma’s course and assessment rules. It should not be described as automatic proof of eligibility to practise a regulated health profession or to treat a clinical condition independently. Learners must check the rules and expectations that apply in their region and work setting.

Services you can offer after the course

Enoma presents the course as preparation for offering suitable movement-based classes, sessions, workshops, and seminars. Possible formats include the following, provided they fit your competence, local rules, and the needs of participants.

Individual sessions. Offer planned one-to-one activities focused on expression, body awareness, gentle movement, or reflection. Explain the purpose and limits of the service.

Small-group workshops. Lead guided activities for people who want to explore creativity or group connection. Provide options for people who prefer to observe.

Educational sessions. Work with schools, colleges, dance groups, or adult-learning programmes. Follow safeguarding and consent rules, especially when working with children.

Workplace wellbeing activities. Offer movement breaks or introductory sessions for teams. Describe them as wellbeing or learning activities unless you have the credentials needed to provide clinical treatment.

Community programmes. Collaborate with community groups or senior centres to create accessible activities. Adapt pace, space, music, and movement choices to the group.

Online sessions and resources. Deliver live workshops or create recorded activities, worksheets, and reflection guides. Give clear safety notes and a way for participants to pause or opt out.

Partnership projects. Work with dance teachers, yoga instructors, counsellors, care providers, or wellness studios. Agree on roles, participant safety, and referral routes in advance.

These are possible service formats, not promises of employment or income. Opportunities depend on your skills, experience, the population served, and local requirements. Clinical, hospital, rehabilitation, trauma-related, or mental health settings may require additional qualifications and supervision. Do not present yourself as a psychologist, psychotherapist, or licensed clinician unless you separately hold the required qualification and registration.

This course is ideal for

The course may appeal to people who already use movement in their work and to those who are curious about how movement and expression connect. Dance teachers, yoga instructors, gym teachers, nurses, social workers, teachers, doctors, sportspeople, fitness trainers, and dancers are usually among its interested learners.

It may also interest:

• Dance and movement educators who want to explore expression and reflection beyond dance technique.
• Teachers and youth workers who want age-appropriate movement activities for creativity and group participation.
• Counsellors and helping professionals interested in learning about a body-based approach alongside their existing practice, within their credentials.
• Fitness, yoga, and wellness instructors who want to add reflection and mindful movement to suitable classes without making clinical claims.
• Care and community workers who organise activities for adults or older people and want to learn about inclusive movement.
• Artists and creative learners curious about expression, body language, rhythm, and emotion.
• People considering a new direction who want to study the subject before deciding whether to pursue related work.

You do not need to be a professional dancer to explore the subject. However, interest in movement does not remove the need to check admission rules. The supplied course information says international applicants must be graduates or hold a Bachelor’s degree from a recognised college or university.

The course may not suit someone seeking guaranteed employment, income, or a substitute for professional clinical training. You will need time to read, complete assignments, consider feedback, and prepare for the final examination.

Course features

Online and self-paced learning

The core course is online and self-paced. This format can help learners arrange study around work, family, or other duties. Self-paced does not mean no effort is required; students still need to review the material, work on assignments, and prepare for the examination.

Detailed study resources

Enoma provides course notes, high-quality audio, multimedia tutorials, training videos, and other digital material. There is a substantial library of DMT-related learning resources.

Individual communication with course directors

Students are provided with a personal messaging portal for course material, updates, course-related questions, guidance, and assignment feedback. Enoma has aimed to reply to student queries within 24 hours.

Assignments and feedback

The assignments allow students to engage with the subject rather than only read about it. Two assignments are required before completion and feedback is provided by the course directors.

Live learning opportunities

The course combines independent study with scheduled live lectures and individual session-planning meetings. These are intended to help students ask questions, explore key ideas, and prepare to structure a session.

A route to continued learning

The Certificate and Advanced Certificate offer different levels of depth. Learners who want more time with DMT skills, activities, live support, and Tai Chi may wish to compare the longer course before selecting an option.

About live session-planning sessions

Planning a DMT session involves more than picking music and asking everyone to move. A facilitator needs to consider the purpose of the session, the people taking part, the time available, the space, and how participants can choose their level of involvement. A thoughtful plan also leaves room to adapt when a group responds differently than expected.

Enoma identifies individual live session-planning sessions as an important part of its training. Every student receives one or more such sessions each month. These meetings are designed to help students prepare for future DMT sessions and consider how to lead them with greater clarity and confidence.

A planning discussion may help a learner think through questions such as: Who is the session for? What is the main aim? How will the activity be introduced? Is there a gentler option? How will the facilitator explain that participation is a choice? What can be done if someone feels uncomfortable or wants to stop? How will the session end, and what kind of reflection is suitable?

This guided planning is especially useful because the needs of a group can vary. A movement activity designed for confident adult dancers may not suit a group of older adults or children. A session in a community hall may need a different plan from a small online group. Learners should expect to adjust their ideas in light of feedback and the needs of the people they intend to serve.

Live session-planning meetings are learning support. They should not be confused with a guarantee that a student is ready for every population or clinical setting. Practical experience, supervision, professional qualifications, and additional safeguards may be necessary depending on the work being offered.

About live lectures

Enoma has live lectures for important topics, with two or more lectures each month. The lectures are led by the course directors and are intended to offer more detailed discussion than independent reading alone.

Topics named for live lectures include DMT skills, DMT techniques, body language, basic counselling skills, empathy, and DMT activities. These subjects help connect the course’s practical material with the way a facilitator thinks, communicates, and makes choices during a session.

A lecture offers time to focus on a subject, hear explanations, and raise course-related questions. Students can make the most of these sessions by reading the related material beforehand, noting areas that are unclear, and reviewing their notes afterwards.

Certificate and course completion by Enoma

Students who complete the course and meet assessment requirements receive a Certificate in Dance Movement Therapy. The final examination is worth 100 marks, focuses mainly on theory, and must be completed within three hours on the course forum. A score above 50 is required to receive the certificate.

A student who does not pass the first attempt may take the examination once more after a 30-day gap. An evaluation charge of ₹499 is payable for the second attempt.

The certificate is sent by courier within 20 days of course completion and courier charges are included in the course fee.

The certificate supports work as a DMT facilitator in India, including offering DMT sessions, classes, seminars, and workshops. This certificate is not the same as a government licence, university degree, or regulated clinical qualification. Before offering services, check relevant local rules and the credential requirements of any employer or venue. In particular, do not claim to diagnose or treat a mental health condition unless you are separately qualified and authorised to do so.

Choose your course

Enoma offers two course options. The right choice depends on how much time and depth you want, your budget, and the types of learning support you hope to receive.

Both options are intended to prepare learners to offer suitable professional services as DMT facilitators. The Advanced Certificate is described as providing more extensive training, not as a replacement for any separate professional registration or qualification required for a particular role.

Fees and payment information

The Certificate course is listed at ₹34,300 and the Advanced Certificate course at ₹49,900. There is an instalment option: two instalments for the Certificate course and three for the Advanced Certificate course, with payments scheduled at admission and later months.

The course fee is non-refundable because students receive unrestricted access to the online course. Retain a copy of the payment receipt provided at admission.

Enoma testimonials

The main reason why I joined this course was my interest in helping others with their problems. Besides this being a homeopath, psychology plays a vital role in practicing homeopathic medicine. I always felt that I should reach out to people and help them solve their problems.

After joining this course, I got to broaden my view of thoughts. Each day I get to enrich my thoughts and learn something new. I have attempted topics which are completely out of my knowledge but with research and enthusiasm to do it I could complete it nicely. I can tackle my own emotions at times and it has benefited me on personal level as well. I can think more rationally and from all perspectives when in crises.

A mentor like Savio DSilva is thoroughly a blessing for all of us. He has been there for us and truly spoon fed us on all occasions. By joining him our articles have gained international exposure and will be there on Google for years to come. My heartfelt thanks to you sir. I will keep giving my best to the course and to you in the future as well.
Thanks and regards,
Dr. Ankita Marjadi

The best thing, now I realize, that happened to me by joining this course, is to have new friends and well wishers like you around me. I am sure the alumni association that will be generated by this course will go a long way even after we finish it.

Sir Savio, please accept my gratitude for this new experience of my life. In fact all of us should be thankful to you for having such wonderful medium of interaction and bringing the like minded people together. Thank you once again.
Vikas Tayal

I like listening to people and it gives me immense pleasure when I am able to help them out. I have worked in organizations where I have felt the gap which needs to be filled in by professionals. This course is helping me to be eligible to fill in that gap.

After joining this course, I was first overwhelmed by the amount of material provided to us. The eBooks and other material have been of great use to me to understand this field better. I can relate in a better way with people and their problems, by actually being able to put myself in their shoes to solve their queries.

But most importantly, I have become much more patient while dealing with things in my own life. I can rationalize with people and situations in a better way. This course has also made me learn to accept criticism gracefully, to work in teams, and at times even to work under pressure, without letting the deadlines take a toll on me. I have also improved on my communication skills both verbal and non verbal. And I hope by the time I finish this course, there will be a lot more that I would have learned.
Akshaya Kawle

When i joined this Savio DSilva course I wasn't very sure as to how things will be done. But slowly and steadily I was so impressed with the way the assignments were given and the grades that were given to us. Everything was done so perfectly by sir. You have been such a great mentor.

All the assignments given to us were designed so beautifully. The course material was vast as well as it provided us an indepth knowledge of every field of psychology. Guiding us and making us do our assignments so well was all because of your hard work. Admitting me to your online course was itself a big thing for me because being a graduate in commerce. I'm so grateful to Sir for the same.
Gargi Sharma

I have been attached to this course since the past 10 months and believe me I still feel I am a new student in the sense that everyday there is something new to learn and experience. It is a wonderful course, the entire credit of which goes to Mr. Savio DSilva, who is always open to new ideas, experimenting and implementing innovative ways to make the course more interesting.

If you are sincere and regular in answering the online queries and in completing your assignments then there is nothing to stop you. Should you have any problem, Mr. D'Silva is a very, very helpful teacher and guide and of course, we are always there to assist you. All the best!
Mridu Rathi

You can go ahead in joining this institute. As a student, you will have no boundaries and will learn so much than your expectations from Savio Sir. He will always be there with you in each and every step you take.

Whatever be the background, if you have inclination and dedication, you can come out as the best. You will be given a chance to answer to queries while you are doing the course, which I think nobody else is offering in any college. We are also there to help you out. Good Luck and all the best.
George Kutty

Whatever background you are from will not make a difference. Learning human behavior is an asset and will help you in any field you choose to be. I can assure you that the language is very simple and our course director is an excellent person who is very approachable. He takes lot of interest in his students and I can speak confidently for all my co-students that we are definitely benefiting by joining this institute. So go ahead and join in. All the best.
Anju Kapoor

My aim to join this course was to reach out to maximum number of needy people and help them with their problems related to life. I always look forward to encourage and motivate people to face and brace their lives irrespective of the age groups they belong to. To give a lending ear and a strong shoulder to share and care for their burdens to unload with an aim to cure them of their miseries of any kind.

After joining this course, I have gained vast knowledge on all spheres of life. Therapy though has been the aim of this course I would like to submit that apart from that it teaches you how to work systematically. How to communicate relying only on posts. How to share responsibilities and work to achieve your goals as a team. Meeting deadlines both at short and long time of notice. Adhering to rules and making sure of a disciplined aptitude and attitude towards work.

This sure shows communication indeed is the key to all our problems. Being there for your colleagues and helping them in their hour of need, like many of our friends have set an example on this forum. This course teaches as both leadership qualities and skills both at therapy & communicating. So far a very challenging, enriching and learned experience is what i have had. And looking forward for much more in the months to come. Thank You Savio Sir for all the able guidance.
Regards.
Dr. Neelu Khanna

I am very much interested in mental and emotional problems of people and want to help them in their tough situations, thats why I have done my homeopathy which is based on mental symptoms. and problems. And it is my dream profession, so when I came to know about this online course, I joined it immediately.

It is very good course, with many articles, notes, and books on vast areas, to increase our knowledge and skills..and chat sessions are also very helpful for us, as they have given us guidance and clear our doubts. With this course, I am making my dream come true. Thanks and Regards,
Sampati Nanglia

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for enrolling me and guiding and supporting me throughout the course. I feel happy that I could complete it successfully and can be of help for people around me who are in distress in this changing world.

And also it is helping me in my personal life too. It was my dream come true and was excited when I was admitted.

Indeed you are a great director and I appreciate your innovations from time to time to improve the course . Thanks a lot once again. Thanks a lot for all the guidance.

God bless you and your family.
Regards,
Lt. Col. A.Soosamma (Retd)

I am very happy to have joined this course and I am proud to be a part of it. Savio DSilva is highly supportive and has made the course educational and enjoyable. I have got all I need to know, wonderfully covered through assignments, explored through queries. The supervision and guidance by you is excellent Savio DSilva Sir!

I have learned so much, reviewed my skills and it helps me use my skills both on-line, and face-to-face. The benefits are unaccountable. The course has effectively helped me develop my skills and enhance my learning. The course forum has given me a tremendous feeling of support and understanding of the course.

Being a teacher, this course has helped me to tackle students and parents very effectively. It has also helped me coordinate effectively with my colleagues. The course has genuinely offered me stimulating experience of all the skills and competencies involved for online work. What is covered in this course in six months could take years to learn in a normal institute.

I will wholeheartedly recommend this course for anyone looking for a good on-line Course and wishing to gain greater understanding of the subject. Once again, I thank you Savio Sir for the wonderful opportunity given to me. This course has enhanced my confidence a million folds!
Mani Mozhi

It has been my privilege to be a student at Enoma. The learning atmosphere, the directors humble guidance, the students friendly help makes my study more comfortable. Thank you for all. It took me 10 hard years to come out independent, no one, as such blocked my freedom, but...I myself got caught in the maze of unwanted thoughts.....I can very well say....the online course here at Enoma, has encouraged me to explore and evolve.......my unconditional thanks to you.

Just wondering how the people move towards excellence......and how they manage time for it all. I am basically a home maker, would like to exercise my responsibility good. And together, I am with my passion of doing.

When things adds up in life......a more disciplined way of living must be the need.....and balancing it all is really a great trick to learn. Again as Savio Sir said, in writing, resting and working we will increase our productivity......would like to work on it.

And my mind is also thinking as how to apply every genuine lesson in my practical life. But my time spent at Enoma is reduced due to summer holidays for my daughter.....However, do not want to skip it wholly, would like to keep in touch as and when free, because, Enoma helped me transform my state of life to a better way of living.

A final word before you begin

Learning to facilitate movement-based activities is both a study task and a responsibility to other people. Good intentions matter, but they are not enough on their own. Take time to learn the ideas, practise planning, listen to feedback, respect personal boundaries, and understand when a participant needs support beyond your role.

If you are drawn to dance, movement, empathy, and creative learning, Enoma’s Dance Movement Therapy course may be a useful place to explore the subject. Compare the two programmes, and select the option that suits your goals. A thoughtful start is better than a rushed promise.

Move gently. Learn carefully. Help responsibly.
