{"value"=>"<p> <span class=\"title\">Race, culture, and ethnicity, as it relates to dance therapy from an African-American perspective.</span></p> <p>The purpose of this study is to help bridge the gaps in the dance therapy modality when working with African-Americans. Through the examination of issues pertaining to the African-American culture, we see how the culture manifests in the therapy session when given space to present. Equally important to the therapeutic alliance is the dance therapist's own awareness of the issues that are provoked and manifested when working with African-Americans. These are highlighted in a discussion from one African-American's experience when working with and embracing the African-American experience in dance therapy session.</p> <p>The study focuses on an analysis of the author's interactions with other African-American group members in a dance therapy session. A videotaped dance therapy session is analyzed using “Analysis of Interaction in Movement Sessions” (AIMS) which identifies behavioral and system elements, to examine these interactions. By extracting and identifying these interactions, personal insights is gained by creating a welcoming environment in which African-American group members can interact and communicate. It is the conjecture of the author that an African-American dance therapist has greater interactions with those group members who are also African-American in a pluralistic group.</p>"}
