message: How can the introduction of the idea of DMT to the US by Marian Chace represent "inspiring the first wave of DMT" when the development and use of dance therapy in the UK in the 19th century must, surely, be the first wave (according to this same Wikipedia entry)?  Clearly, the first wave was "dance being used as a form of therapy... as far back as the 19th century in the UK". Marian Chace's introduction of DMT to the US can surely only be considered to have "inspired" the SECOND wave!
This article states "The development of DMT can be split into two waves throughout history", then makes a mockery of that claim by then stating that the development and use of dance therapy first occurred in the UK in the 19th century, implying that this wasn't one of the stages or "waves" of its development. Mmm.

message: Despite literature on Dance Therapy dating back to the 1940s, there remains no scientific evidence for the therapeutic efficacy of DMT.Bradt J, Goodill SW, Dileo C, (2011). Dance/movement therapy for improving psychological and physical outcomes in cancer patients (Review). The Cochrane Library, Issue 10Xia J, Grant TJ, (2011). Dance therapy for schizophrenia (Review). The Cochrane Library, Issue 2 
This section needs to be deleted or updated because there is scientific evidence for efficiency and there is now a whole section on effectiveness.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 3faith.hope.love (talk • contribs) 14:14, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

message: Movement therapy shouldn't redirect here. "Dance/Movement Therapy" as it is being called here is a branch of movement therapy, and not the otherway around. To refer movement therapy here is to imply all movement therapy comes from dance, ignoring the wide range of methodologies evolved from yoga therapy, tai chi, feldenkrais, somatic and physical therapy techniques et cetera. It's like having the word 'bird' take you the page about bluejays. This page is giving an overly narrow definition to movement therapy which should either be a different page, or "DMT" should be a subheader for the parent topic of movement therapy.Iṣṭa Devatā (talk) 16:11, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The history section of this page could do with some serious work. Citing Marion Chase and Mary Stark-Whitehouse is a good start but development of DMP/DMT as a field has had a complex and pluralistic history and I think it would be good to have at least reference to some of the major influences including Somatics, psychoanalytically based Art Therapy etc. Also perhaps to mention that the field did not start with some consensus about what DMT is and what it includes - to this day there is debate about whether, for example, developmental movement therapy belongs to an aspect of DMT or not.
Additionally, since almost every DMT that I know works pretty heavily with Laban Movement Analysis in some way, I think the influence of Irmgard Bartinieff (one of Laban’s students) and Judith Kestenberg (one of Bartinieff’s students) needs some more reference.
