Dance behind bars – Dança e terapia gestalt numa comunidade prisional

Dance behind bars – Dance and Gestalt therapy in a prison community

This Master’s thesis in Psychology aims to understand how contact with dance and Gestalt therapy has a positive impact on different areas of the self. The study is part of the corpoemcadeia project (PARTIS 2019-2022), carried out with participants from the Linhó prison community.

The sample consisted of five male prisoners from Linhó Prison, aged between 20 and 42. This research consists of qualitative data collection, using semi-structured interviews, with the aim of documenting the final reflections on participation in this project and to support the evidence that artistic projects in a prison context have a positive impact on their participants.
