The purpose of this study was to present an academic discourse on a theoretical framework and acceptance process of ‘creative intercorporeality’ in the collaborative work of choreographers with and without disabilities. To this end, a grounded theory approach using a qualitative research method was employed to dancers who have participated in collaborative choreography. This study employed the perspective of social cognitive theory about the process in which dancers with and without disabilities form emotional empathy and trust relationships through continuous interactions for creative work. Physical, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral empathy and interactions in the collaborative work of choreographers with and without disabilities were discussed as a process of forming ‘creative intercorporeality’ that is defined as creative attitude and perspective consisting of harmony, concurrency, consistency, and balance.
