Dancing towards harmony – Mental health at work
In the vibrant world of hip-hop and street dances, where creativity and bodily expression take flight, Get Down stands out not only for the quality and originality of its services, but also for its profound commitment to the well-being of its artists and collaborators. This commitment is reflected in particular attention to mental health in the workplace, effective time management, and the integration of openness and discussion into our practices. Our values – transparency, humanity, ethics, authenticity, professionalism, and creativity – form the foundation of this approach.
In the dance universe, where pressure and competition can sometimes weigh heavily, Get Down is committed to maintaining a healthy and supportive work environment. Recognizing the importance of mental health at work means allowing everyone to flourish, feel valued, and understood. This involves providing spaces for exchange and support, where artists and collaborators can share their experiences and concerns without fear of judgment.
Time management: the key to balance
At Get Down, we believe that mastering time is essential for the well-being of our teams. Effective time management not only optimizes creativity and productivity, but also ensures essential moments of rest and relaxation for mental health. Therefore, we encourage working methods that respect each individual’s rhythm, promoting a healthy balance between professional projects and personal life. There are mornings when we take more time to get up, and conversely, evenings when we feel motivated until midnight. What matters to us is listening to ourselves and taking advantage of moments when we are most inspired to keep other moments for ourselves and our well-being.
Dance therapy: A bridge to well-being
Following our interview with Viola Chiarini, artist and dance therapist, it is important to emphasize that dance is not limited to its artistic aspect; it also proves to be a means of promoting mental well-being. Dance therapy offers all those desiring to participate a way to express their emotions, reduce stress, and strengthen self-esteem. This therapeutic approach perfectly aligns with our vision of authenticity and humanity, proving that movement can be both an art form and a path to healing.
Professional keys in line with our values
For Get Down, being transparent, ethical, authentic, professional, and creative is not just a matter of external values, but a way of life integrated into every aspect of our work. We are committed to:
- Transparency: Openly communicate about challenges and successes, creating an atmosphere of trust and mutual respect.
- Humanity: Emphasize the well-being and personal fulfillment of each member of our team.
- Ethics: Act with integrity in all our projects, ensuring a fair and respectful work environment.
- Authenticity: Encourage individual expression and sharing of lived experiences, strengthening the connection between our artists and our audience.
- Professionalism: Maintain a high level of excellence and dedication in all our projects.
- Creativity: Constantly innovate, using dance as a means to explore and solve problems in original ways.
At Get Down, we are convinced that taking care of the mental health of our artists and ourselves is fundamental to creating a stimulating, ethical, and productive work environment. By placing humans at the heart of our approach, we dance together towards a future where well-being and creativity harmonize perfectly.
