A1
A Creative Movement Process-
From Inner Listening to Form
Paula Perlman
Bringing something to form is part of the creative process and the integration of our experiences. After deepening our capacity for “inner listening” by working with concrete and abstract images we will bring a movement experiential to form that works toward an integration of self. The movement approaches of Alma Hawkins and Mary Starks Whitehouse are influential in this presentation.

Paula Perlman, LMFT (#02136), ADTR and CLMA (certified Laban Movement Analyst) teaches creative movement with children in private and public schools and an art center in the inner-city of Los Angeles. She also works with seniors as a Dance/Movement Therapist and movement specialist. She is a faculty member at the Center for Movement Education and Research instructing in the Alternate Route Training for Dance/Movement Therapy. She is co-creator of a professional development program for teachers, “How to use movement in the classroom to teach curriculum and the arts- K-5th.”

A2
Autism: Breaking Down the Disorder
Dr. Lori Baudino

Dr. Lori Baudino, ADTR, discusses her clinical work with young children given the diagnosis of Autism. She reveals 5 categorizations of the disorder, which can be used to further understand children with this diagnosis and the empowering support that clinicians can provide to parents and professionals. A clinical case presentation will provide in depth discussion into one of the categories: Trauma. In addition, Dr Baudino will describe the use of Dance/Movement Therapy in the treatment and intervention for these individualized children.

Dr. Lori Baudino has been a practicing clinician for the past six years, providing services in Los Angeles, California, Washington, DC, Melbourne, Australia, and Ghana, Africa. She received her doctorate in Clinical Psychology and her Masters in Dance/Movement Therapy. This therapeutic approach identifies symptoms and creates ways to work toward incorporating movement expression into everyday action and also provides a place for self exploration, which promotes well being and self awareness. Dr. Baudino worked extensively in psychiatric hospitals with adolescent and adult populations and rehabilitation centers for pain management. Dr. Baudino has specialized in supervising, facilitating, and providing treatment for children with special needs and their families. She has worked as the coordinator for Behavior Intervention Programs within the home/school setting and Psychological services for aiding families with special needs children in support groups for parenting from the inside out.

Keynote Address:
Effort/Shape Compatibility
Warren Lamb

Warren Lamb studied at the Art of Movement Studio, Machester, England (1946-1950) then continued as apprentice to Rudolf Laban in developing Laban/Lawrence Personal Effort Assessment.

After Laban’s death in 1958 Lamb taught Effort/Shape to Irmgard Bartenieff and helped her form the Effort/Shape Department of the Dance Notation Bureau in New York, which later became the Laban Institute of Movement Studies.

Lamb also taught Dr. Judith Kestenberg and worked with her Child Development Group in Long Island, New York for many years on the development of the Kestenberg Movement Profile.

Lamb was responsible for developing Action Profiling, now re-named Movement Pattern Analysis and formed Warren Lamb Associates, based in London, to apply it, primarily in the field of Business Management, but also in other fields.

He is now seeking to gain more recognition for Movement Study as a discipline in its own right and is also working on the contribution to Decision-Making Theory and to Gender Studies.

Lamb’s work is documented in multiple books and DVDs.
