Clara loved the way Rudolf Steiner worked with children. He
was there for instance on the day the home was opened on 18 June 1924 and spoke
to children and parents individually. However she found some of his ideas
bizarre. What do you think?
Eurythmy
Body movement = "visible speech"
Communication through non-verbal gestures
Movements = sounds and words
Comes from Greek "harmonious / beautiful movement"
Sacred dance
In the Waldorf schools, eurythmy is very important and there
are strict guidelines for each grade. How does it compare with your P.E.
lessons?
Try to find some videos of eurythmy. What are its main
qualities, do you think?
