[Adta] RE: Adta Digest, Vol 16, Issue 79- Movement Assessment Tools

Mon Feb 26 14:22:04 EST 2007

Dear Nava and list serve members,
The topic of assessment is so timely for me.  At our last Minnesota Chapter 
meeting we began a brief discussion of the importance of assessment & 
assessment forms used in the hospital and other settings.  We decided to put 
this on the agenda of our next meeting to give members opportunity to 
compile forms, assessments, any material that they want to share.  I'd like 
to see added to the list of "Movement Assessment Tools"  the "Movement 
Diagnosis Tests" developed by Liljan Espenak.  These are described quite 
nicely in chapter 3 of her book DANCE THERAPY THEORY AND APPLICATION 
copyright 1981 by Charles C. Thomas, publisher.  Thank you for compiling 
these tools.
Millie Baker, ADTR, CMA, LICSW
