ECArTE:
European Consortium for
Arts Therapies Education
In 2009, Itto participated in ECArTE Conference in London for the first time, and learned a lot about the Arts Therpaies in Europe: Art Therapy, Drama Therapy, Music Therapy, Play Therapy, and Dance Therapy have been collectively studied by practitioners and researchers of each Art field. ECArTE international conference has been held every two year in a place of scenic beauty of Europe, such a Lucca (Italy), Paris, Palermo (Italy), Krakow (Poland).
In the ECArTE conference, Itto and Mika made talk presentations and butoh performance presentations as follows:

The five ART areas give influences one another, and are heightening and deepening the world of ART through practical approaches together with fundamental understandings about ART.
In the ECArTE conference, Itto has been in charge of English presentation, and Mika shows her butoh dance presentation together with Itto.
