What do we really need to run a good music therapy session?

Just finished two strong music therapy sessions for kids with autism.
I’m tired but happy! Their interactions are a lot more now, after two months of meetings! 🎶🎵
I could hear their voice singing and asking me for tunes; they played the instruments and I saw them really exited keeping the rhythm with the body percussion! Once I finished I took a picture of the classroom and I felt it was so empty!!!
How many elements were not there anymore? What do we really need to run a good session?
Let’s start the list…

• 0.listening  
• 1. circle music 
• 2. relationshiop 
• 3. musical games 
• 4. jokes 
• 5. passion 
• 6. experience 
• 7. help from the tutor 
• 8. curiosity 
• 9. mistakes
• 10. a fair amount of luck!

Venla Sandgren I like your list!  I would also add: #touching #usingthevoice#singing #smiling #hugging 

Noga Ritter improvisation ! we work a lot with SEN children in all ages . Beat-box goes down super well and Loop pedal !!! when they hear their voices played back at them its an enormous affect !
