ISIS-Canada is a training institute in intermodal expressive arts therapy. We believe when we make art together, whether in the therapy office or in community, something new emerges in the world. Through the creation of a new thing, we invite other change to happen. At ISIS-Canada , we know that human experience and imagination search for expression in many ways and so, through the participation of internationally known artists and expressive arts therapists, students are exposed to various artistic modalities. At ISIS-Canada , through the arts, we learn to enter a time and space where the old rules no longer apply. We learn to play there - staying open to surprises. When we leave, we have new and artful ways to engage our lives.
At ISIS-Canada we take seriously the tradition and disciplines of the arts as they have evolved over the course of human history. In all societies up to the present, the arts have played an essential role in enabling human beings to make sense of their world, to live with suffering when necessary and to be able to celebrate the joy of life.
ISIS-Canada is a member of the International Network of Expressive Arts Therapy Training Centers that interconnects institutes in North America, Europe and the Middle East.
