Welcome

You have discovered a new eurythmy discussion group to encourage interest in eurythmy and fellowship among the eurythmy community. We hope you will participate to help get it started.

Topics include performance eurythmy, therapeutic eurythmy, Waldorf education eurythmy and other items of interest. It is also an open public dialogue between audience and performer where all questions about eurythmy are welcome.

Eurythmy

"Now all that can be perceived by supersensible vision, all that can thus be learned about the nature of these forms and gestures of the air, can be carried into movements of the arms and hands, into movements of the whole human being. There then arises in visible form the actual counterpart of speech. One can use the entire human body in such a way that it really carries out those movements which are otherwise carried out by the organs connected with speech and music. Thus there arises visible speech, visible music — in other words, the art of Eurythmy." -- Rudolf Steiner
