A primary characteristic of many children is abundant energy, so they often enthusiastically accept the use of dance and movement in therapy. Movement activities with children focus on self-awareness. For instance, directed DMT may help abused children exercise control over their personal space and regain a sense of control and ownership of their own bodies (Cristobal, 2018; Goodill, 1987). Movement and dance also help children gain an awareness of others. Several types of movement exercises can engage children and promote different aspects of their mental and physical health quite concretely (Tortora, 2005).
