| Sumario: | This study proposes four kinetic symbols of Greek dance "Zonarádikos" (the circle, the spiral, escalation and de-escalation, the net) as dance movement therapy tools suitable for addressing and preventing mental health deterioration within communities that have faced crises. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was employed to explore the connection between the feelings that these symbols provoke and the concepts of social support, social cohesion and community resilience. Five participants were interviewed. The results revealed relevance between the kinetic symbols and the concepts of social support, social cohesion and community resilience. Finally, one more symbol, the group yell, emerged as a possible tool. |
