Psychologist and dance therapist Petra Klein created the "Dance of Life" as a result of many years of experience.

She writes (from her book "Dance of Life"): "... Dance has an extraordinary way in assisting the development of people's personalities. However, in order for the potential energy of dance to develop fully, we must consider certain aspects of life and of the human psyche.

Therefore, I created the "Dance of Life" to enrich and extend the lives of people of all ages. It strongly encourages self expression and the feeling of belonging to a joyful community. The "Dance of Life" brings us into close contact with the various aspects of life itself. This is a natural way of making dance an integral part of our daily lives, for example at kindergarten, school, adult education centers, health-care programs or simply during our leisure time or vacation.

The "Dance of Life" is as diverse as life itself. Through dance we can learn with ease how to experience ourselves as a harmonious unity of body, mind and soul. We gain more lightness of attitude, "alive"-ness, joy-of-life and liberated inner strength, and are able to overcome possible inhibitions. My inner desire is to reach with the "Dance of Life" all people who are open to discover their fascinating inner world and to enjoy the feast of life! ..." (from her book "Dance of Life)
