To our readers,As the calendar year comes to a close, individuals may feel beckoned to enter a season of change, reflection and contemplation. This journal issue was developed as the co-editors continue to uphold the journal's commitment to scholarship in the field of dance/movement therapy by refining processes and procedures related to publication of the journal.Over the course of the first year as co-editors, efforts have been made to identify new board members, peer reviewers, and update article categories. An exciting new category for authorship is the Commentary Article type, which will feature discussion of future directions in terms of professional networks, professional development, and/or current discourses within practice and research. These efforts serve to expand the reach of the journal, refine how authors identify their work, and be responsive to the needs of our board, reviewers, authors, and readers.The editorial board continues to develop and change, with new opportunities for members opening up as we expand the journal. We thank the editorial board members and peer reviewers who have helped support this journal and are concluding their term of service, and are grateful for the members joining us who add their expertise to our incredible reviewer pool.This current issue consists of six original manuscripts that follow the theme of looking deeper and brings a focus on some of the fundamental methodologies inherent in DMT, such as kinesthetic empathy (Christopher & Tamplin), synchrony (Manders, Koch & Fuchs) and an analytical view on the historical elements of movement
