Dublin psychologist teaching high heel dancing that ‘helps without therapy’

Angela Didek is a dance teacher who has a business called Dance It Out for children in Dublin City. She studied dance and psychology at university to go down the route of dance therapy or becoming a psychologist.

The dance instructor understands how to use dance not only as an art and a means of exercise, but as a tool to in still confidence and wellbeing in those in her classes. She told Dublin Live: “I feel that getting a dance class gets you breathing so it’s actually helping people without getting a therapist or talking to friends because you’re actually forced to be present, move and breathe.
