"Sociodrama has been defined as a deep action method dealing with intergroup relations and collective ideologies. The true subject of a sociodrama is the group. The concept underlying this approach is the recognition that man is a role player, that every individual is characterized by a certain range of roles which dominate his behavior and that every culture is characterized by a certain set of roles which it imposes with a varying degree of success upon its members." - J.L. Moreno
Sociodrama provides an action forum for resolving conflicts among people with different views. It is also effective in clarifying values, developing social skills, solving problems, diagnosing an organization, developing, and rehearsing action plans or improving personal effectiveness and awareness. Sociodrama groups may take several approaches to working with their shared experiences. They may work on problem-solving, developing deeper understanding, making decisions, or learning new roles. Come have fun, earn Ce’s, and learn something new.

Rainbowdance Basic
The basic model of our program works to build social empathy, self-confidence, and self-regulation, using music, movement, and storytelling. Rainbowdance is adaptable for children ages 1-5 as well as children with special needs and behavioral challenges. Developed by Dicki Johnson Macy at Boston Children's Foundation, Rainbowdance is now available in Greensboro, NC with Angela Wiley.
In Rainbowdance, children will experience:
1. Peer and Parent Support
2. Creative Expression
3. Self-regulation
4. Increased confidence
Transition to Kindergarten
The child who has developed self-esteem and confidence is prepared to confront social challenges with curiosity and courage. Studies show that social and emotional health at the preschool level increases children’s readiness for kindergarten. If they feel regulated, confident, and empathic towards others, they will be successful in a formal school environment. In this model we expand the repertoire, increasing its sophistication to mirror the challenges children will face in the formal school environment.
Rainbowdance is also for grownups!
