DANCE, which is included in the rhythmic arts group that gives form to movement, is not only a performance, but also a form of expression, a way of life, and can also be considered by some scientists as an aesthetic sport. Every step, every movement rises from the depths of the body and turns into an expression. These statements are very valuable that positively affect both the physical, spiritual and social health of an individual.

The strong connection between health and dance has been preserved and celebrated across cultures for centuries. Today, scientific research supports this connection and helps us better understand how dance positively affects our health.

With the aim of sharing the use of dance for treatment in many health issues and, mainting the health of dancers who demonstrate high complex physical and mental performance, we proudly present the I^st International Dance Science Congress with the themes 'Dance for Health / Health for Dancers' on the occasion of the 100^th anniversary of our Republic.

We will be honored to share our experience and to feel together with you in our congress, which will be held at Fenerbahçe University during the amazing autumn semester of İstanbul.
