Wesley Institute hosted a professional development day for dance/movement therapists and those interested in dance therapy or allied movement forms. The day was divided into two parts: an Authentic Movement workshop presented by Linda Murrow, dance therapist and lecturer at RMIT, Melbourne; and a workshop on post-natal depression and dance therapy, presented by Juliette Kirkwood, a graduate of Wesley Institute. The day ended with a time to meet each other and share dance therapy experiences. An overview of each workshop is given, describing different experiential activities and Robyn’s reflective experiencing of engaging in them. (pp 13-14)
