This is a video created by registered dance movement therapist Rachel Skolnik Bonaiuto in Colorado about the form of Authentic Movement. There are many who call what they do Authentic Movement, but not all of them are trained in the form as created by Mary Whitehouse and further refined by Janet Adler. Rachel's description of the witness as nonjudgmental and creating a safe space for participants to venture into their unconsious is what I hold as minimum requirements. Training as a dance movement therapist provides Rachel with the training as a mental health counselor which will help her create the emotionally and psychologically safe space.
