Different types of dance initiatives are being designed for people across their entire lifespan, and implemented in a wide range of health and well-being settings. The aims of these initiatives are to improve their physical and mental conditions. Research on the use of dance for health and well-being is also rapidly gaining momentum which suggests a need to value and assess the process (the dance intervention) as much as the product (the results of the research). In this position paper, I critically examine some of these issues from my own research experiences anchored in a feminist poststructuralist perspective. Using the apparently simplistic WH questions (what, where, who, when, whose) and examples from my own research, I present an overview of the field and propose some directions to take for the future. Despite the fact that the paper is anchored in the Canadian society, I believe it can find resonance in many different other cultures since the questions being asked are generic and therefore invite for contextual answers.
