Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to in-depth understanding and exploration of teachers' perceptions of movement therapy implemented for the purpose of school adaptation of students in the Corona pandemic. The study participants were male and female elementary school teachers in their 20s and 50s. Interviews and analysis were conducted according to Giorgi's phenomenological and qualitative research method to find out the essential meaning of the teachers' experiences of the movement therapy program for students' school adaptation in the Corona pandemic situation. As a result of the analysis, it was categorized into 17 semantic units, 7 subjects, and 3 essential characteristics. The essential characteristics were 'factors hindering school adaptation after the corona pandemic', 'dance movement therapy as a school adaptation problem and solution', and 'improvement of students' ability to adapt to school through dance and movement therapy'. Based on these research results, a discussion was conducted to understand the experiences of teachers who implemented a dance and movement therapy program for students to adapt to school in the context of the Corona pandemic.
