Our history

The Beginning (1980)
At the age of 12, Carola Terreni began dancing with children and telling stories from different traditions, fascinated by the power of stories to connect people and transmit emotions. This love for stories and dance marked the beginning of a path full of creativity.

Artistic Exploration
During her youth, Carola combined storytelling with dance, yoga, painting and other expressive arts, discovering in these disciplines tools for emotional connection and personal growth.

Foundations of the method
These experiences, combined with studies in art therapy, psychology and meditation, have shaped a unique approach that integrates art, movement and conscious pause to enrich the lives of children, young people and adults.

Birth of the creative dance studio (1992)
Carola founded the Creative Dance Studio, a space dedicated to exploring and developing these tools, providing workshops and experiences to diverse communities.

Creation of HapusKids (2023)
With the desire to expand this approach, HapusKids was born: a comprehensive method to promote the emotional, physical and creative development of children and adults.

Present and future
Today, HapusKids continues to evolve, bringing its method to different parts of the world and adapting it to the needs of a constantly changing world.
