During Restorative Justice Week, which runs from November 16 to 23, 2025, Montr\u00e9al Danse is once again partnering with the Restorative Justice Service Center (CSJR) to offer a sensitive and caring movement workshop.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Entitled “Debout” (Stand up), this workshop is an invitation to inhabit your body differently\u2014to listen to your sensations, to connect with yourself and others in a safe and respectful space.<\/p>\n

I<\/span>Inspired by the words of Genevi\u00e8ve Rioux, spokesperson for the Restorative Justice Service Center, the theme “Stand Up” opens up a space for reflection and transformation: how, after a difficult experience, can we regain power over our bodies and our stories? How can we gently start moving again, at our own pace?<\/span><\/p>\n

The workshop will be led by Hoor Malas, choreographer, performer, and facilitator for DCV, known for her grounded, gentle, and deeply human approach. Through guided movement exploration, participants will be invited to reconnect with their sensations and allow whatever their bodies wish to express to emerge, without expectation.<\/span><\/p>\n

We will conclude with an optional moment of sharing, to express a word, a feeling, or a gesture inspired by the movement.<\/span><\/p>\n

This workshop is designed to promote well-being and self-awareness\u2014it is not a therapeutic space, but offers a gentle opportunity for integration.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you require more personalized support, we will be happy to refer you to appropriate resources.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
