Dance therapy
Dance/movement therapy (DMT) in USA/ Australia or Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP) in the UK is the psychotherapeutic use of movement and dance to support intellectual, emotional, and motor functions of the body. As a form of expressive therapy, DMT looks at the correlation between movement and emotion. A typical DMT session has four main stages: preparation, incubation, illumination, and evaluation. Organizations such as the American Dance Therapy Association and the Association for Dance Movement Psychotherapy UK, maintain standards of professional courtesy and high levels of educational standards within the field. DMT is practiced in various clinical settings and is used for psychotherapy purposes and physical therapy.
History
Dance has been used therapeutically for thousands of years. It has been used as a healing ritual in the influence of fertility, birth, sickness, and death since early human history. Over the period from 1840 to 1930, a new philosophy of dance developed in Europe and the United States, defined by the idea that movement could have an effect on the mover vis-a-vis that dance was not simply an expressive art. The actual establishment of dance as a therapy and as a profession occurred in the 1950s, beginning with future American Dance Therapy Association founder Marian Chance.

"Anxiety is a body/mind split that is constructed in the mind, but felt in the body. Dance/movement therapy is a psychotherapeutic process that creates balance in the nervous system, ownership of one’s own body, and agency through movement by turning anxiety into excitement…and giving it someplace to go." - Jennifer Frank Tantia, PhD, MS, BC-DMT, LCAT

"Currently, the word 'therapy' is used to refer to anything that makes us 'feel better.'... But feeling better from dance is not the same thing as dance/movement therapy. How can we differentiate dancers who utilize the innate therapeutic power of dance and dance/movement therapy?" ~ Susan D. Imus

"For 35 years he lived a life of isolation… his movements were quite limited … he never spoke … he made no eye contact … and he certainly didn’t dance! So how was I, a dance/movement therapist, going to work with this man? How was I going to enter into his world and invite him into mine?" ~Jody Wager

"The body is the home of feeling; the house of memory. To heal, we need access to it."
~ Tina Stromsted, Ph.D., MFT, LPCC, BC-DMT
In this ADTA Talk, Tina Stromsted shares how "Authentic Movement helps us recover forgotten, denigrated and repressed aspects of the self [that] remain buried until conditions are nurturing enough to allow them to surface and grow." Stromsted eloquently describes the process of Authentic Movement, the relationship between mover and witness, and how Authentic Movement is used clinically in dance/movement therapy.

Dance therapy
Dance/movement therapy (DMT) in USA/ Australia or Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP) in the UK is the psychotherapeutic use of movement and dance to support intellectual, emotional, and motor functions of the body. As a form of expressive therapy, DMT looks at the correlation between movement and emotion. A typical DMT session has four main stages: preparation, incubation, illumination, and evaluation. Organizations such as the American Dance Therapy Association and the Association for Dance Movement Psychotherapy UK, maintain standards of professional courtesy and high levels of educational standards within the field. DMT is practiced in various clinical settings and is used for psychotherapy purposes and physical therapy.
History
Dance has been used therapeutically for thousands of years. It has been used as a healing ritual in the influence of fertility, birth, sickness, and death since early human history. Over the period from 1840 to 1930, a new philosophy of dance developed in Europe and the United States, defined by the idea that movement could have an effect on the mover vis-a-vis that dance was not simply an expressive art. The actual establishment of dance as a therapy and as a profession occurred in the 1950s, beginning with future American Dance Therapy Association founder Marian Chance.
