Dance therapists find that the same activity will be expressed in various ways. Some patients act like a bionic man with extraordinary strength, possibly showing violent tendencies. Some appear to move effortlessly, as if they were light as feather. In each case the movement is a reflection of the patient's current psychological state.
對於舞蹈治療師而言，同樣的動作，有的人作起來像個機器人、肌肉張力大，表示可能有暴力傾向；有的人輕飄飄的不帶一點重量，都反映著他目前的精神心理狀態。
