Interpersonal communication is one of the fundamental human activities. "It is impossible not to communicate" are the words of the famous scientist Paul Watzlawick (Tomić, Jugo, 2021: 15), which points to the fact that communication takes place constantly and everywhere. When talking about communication, we refer to both verbal and non-verbal communication. Verbal communication refers to spoken words, that is, to mutual transmission of thoughts and ideas. Non-verbal means of communication are all those means that try to be covered by the concept of body language as the oldest form of mutual communication. We transmit emotional states and attitudes through non-verbal communication through body language, i.e. non-linguistic signals. The main channels of non-verbal communication include eye contact, hand gestures, use of personal space, facial expression, body language. We will be able to understand and interpret non-verbal communication best through dance. Dance has a powerful meaning of expression that uses exclusively non-verbal signals to convey the desired message. It is a type of communication that has been present since the beginning of the human race until today. It is a universal language that knows no borders (Cohen, 1988: 13). This activity focuses on communication in content, emphasizing non-verbal communication and explores the role of non-verbal communication in dance (Brkljačić, 2006: 47). This thesis is a systematization of previous research and reflections of various authors on the issue of communication and dance and points out that dance carries an extremely significant symbolic value in the communication process, strongly emphasizing symbolism, non-verbality and conceptuality and the necessity of emotional transfer between artist and audience.
