Tahssis is an autonomous educational initiative centered on promoting mental health through art/dance. It emerged as part of the Fusion project, in collaboration with esteemed EU National Institutes for culture, namely Goethe Institut Rabat, Institut français Rabat, and Wallonia Bruxelles.

This program is designed for individuals interested in movement and dance, including both aspiring professional dancers and enthusiasts. Its primary focus lies in promoting awareness and introducing experimental dance to a diverse audience.

Additionally, the program seeks to sensitize teachers and parents to their crucial role as educators and the values they instill. By doing so, we aim to proactively address and prevent issues such as sexual abuse, abuse of power, gender bias, racism, and body shaming, ensuring a safer and more inclusive environment for the next generation. Furthermore, the program is well-suited for students ranging from a young age to teenagers, allowing a wide range of participants to benefit from its offerings.

This project is considered as a reflection starting point to help the participants to develop analytical thinking skills, being able to ask new questions about the body and its relationship with the environment, by using critical response process as a method. We do not focus only on the principles of movement, but rather questioning our behaviour while sharing this dancing moment with our selves and others.
