Music Therapy Outreach Week #2: Rhythmic Based Movement

These two therapists both specialize in music therapy for people on the autism spectrum and combined their expertise in order to provide a 10 week series of music therapy groups for children on the autism spectrum. This Music Therapy Outreach Program is supported, in part, by a generous grant from Autism Speaks.

Marie & Angie give examples of rhythmic-based movements based on BrainDance as developed by Anne Green Gilbert. The video includes:

1:10 Tap Your Knees for the 5-8-year-old group (created by the local music therapist, Sara Sweeney of Notable Connections)

2:05 Clap, Clap, Clap Your Hands for the 2-4-year-old group.
