Promoting Wellness in Menopause through Dance/Movement
Introduction
MenoMove was a twelve-week arts and health pilot programme offering creative dance/movement sessions to support people experiencing the menopause. Sessions took place in-person in Newport (University of South Wales) and online between September and November 2025 with 33 participants from across Wales, and online participants from the south of England, Scotland and Norway. Delivered by The Body Hotel Hotel CIC and funded by Arts Council Wales in partnership with Aneurin Bevan University Health Board and Velindre NHS Trust, the programme aimed to support vitality, group solidarity, and symptom management. The project responded to growing national interest in creative health, menopause care and social prescribing in Wales. The evaluation used a mixed-methods approach, incorporating the Most Significant Change (MSC) framework, NPSS survey data, and creative feedback tools.
