As our field expands professionally, the need for more concrete and systematic theory and goals increases. Dance therapists must be able to substantiate their work. The therapeutic process in dance therapy focuses on the goal of achieving emotional and physical integration of the patient. This paper integrates the work of dance therapy as developed by Marion Chace with the character analytic and bioenergetic discoveries and techniques of Wilhelm Reich. The work and history of Reich is developed and related to dance therapy. This paper proposes the establishment of Reich's theories and techniques as a theoretical framework for the practice of dance therapy in the Chacian modality.</p>"}
