About this episode

Who would have thought that a chair would make someone change its career!
Laura started dancing from a very young age. It has always been a passion she used to pratice after work. 
As a psychomotor therapist, understanding body movement to relief certain pain became her approach in dance too. 
In fact Laura does not only teach sensual dance. She is also using dance as a therapy for some of her students.

من كان يظن أن الكرسي سيجعل شخصًا ما يغير حياته المهنية!
بدأت لورا الرقص منذ صغرها. لطالما كانت شغفًا اعتادت أن تمارسه بعد العمل.
بصفتها معالج نفسي حركي ، أصبح فهم حركة الجسم لتخفيف بعض الآلام نهجها في الرقص أيضًا.
في الواقع ، لا تقوم لورا بتعليم الرقص الحسي فقط. كما أنها تستخدم الرقص كعلاج لبعض طلابها.
