wow dude those comments are not a good recommendation for a waldorf education.

i'd hit that j, but dude, damn.

[kasimotinka123]

wow, this is really weird, i am a waldorf student and i have a b in eurythmy, but we have poems and nice music, this noise is absolutely terrible

[strivingeurythmist]

When I first saw this video, it COMPLETELY freaked me out. You should be ashamed of yourself for allowing this to be people's intro to what eurythmy is. Video really doesn't seem to be the most living way to introduce the LIVING art.

Really enjoyed this, thank you. I'm an A Level (UK) Performing Arts student specialising in Dance, and I'm interested in incorporating different types of dance theatre into a final piece. I can't really afford the expenditure on the DVD, but is there any relevant websites that you would suggest?

Thank-you for this short introduction into eurythmy (:

There is probably a Eurythmy Association in England that could answer your questions -- google them for help. Best wishes in your endeavors.

well done for putting this out there. Some of us do not have access to this wonderful art form on stage. I'd love to see a Choping Prelude performed

[maxpower1912]

Did Steiner invent and develop eurythmy himself?

[eschwartz1ster]

Yes, eurythmy was developed as a new art by Rudolf Steiner. In the complete DVD, a historical picture of dance circa 1912 is given, and we hear about other great movement ideas that were coming into being at that time - the work of Mary Wiggens, Martha Graham, Isadora Duncan, and "eurythmics." Steiner's contribution, though arising in this context, is still unique -- get the full DVD and you'll see! -- Eugene Schwartz

I was lucky to study eurythmy with the greatest eurythmist of all time:Else Klink in 1980.

"Die eurythmie muss viel lichter werden..." her last words.

me to i love it

[OstpimpensOsthorer]

I remember back in the days in my elder teenyears, when I used to practice Eurythmi with my Steinerclass. Many of us didn't really seem'd to get the point. The reason to that what i think, was that almost everyone was so stressed up and the mainpart of us couldn't reach into their "spirits". That was not possible with only one hour of practice every second day. It's sad, cause when i look

[OstpimpensOsthorer]

back i understand that i could have used it to develope my self if i only knew how to use it and if i wasn't that stressed up! I would like to do the same as i did at that time, but after a joint, cause that REALLY allouds me to break true the "stress-part", and i would have become so much more in a "harmonial-mode", instead of just getting tired legs and bored out. I also think that we had the harmony(that the joint provide

[OstpimpensOsthorer]

important part to what we COULD reach "spiritually" with ourselves in these days, because it's a fact that it's a lot more hard to "reach" our selves at the same time we try deal with our lifes, and just try to reach the deepest in ourselves and our personality when we almost don't know who we are any more because of the way we ignore ourself.

interesting. doing that seems like it evokes strong creative vibrations and forges deep spiritual connection.

via mechanical reproduction our mental charisma gets lost

Die seelische Ausstrahlung geht mit technischer Reproduktion verloren

[eaj1es]

Das gilt doch nicht nur für die Eurhythmie sondern für alles in der Welt.

Wenn ich mir einen Dokumentarstreifen über New York ansehe dann sollte ich doch im Kopf haben, dass ich es life erleben muss, wenn ich die ganze Wirklichkeit wahrnehmen will. Aber ich kann mir schon ein Bild machen davon, was mich physisch ungefähr erwartet -- die Wirklichkeit ist dann überwältigend.

Das Video bleibt ein „Trockenschwimmen", natürlich, aber es kann doch auf ein Phänomen aufmerksam machen.

Peter-

Ja, ein "Trockenschwimmen" ist das Beste, das ein Video über eurythmy zur Verfügung stellen kann, aber mindestens es Leute ausstellt, die eurythmy zu dieser bemerkenswerten Kunst sonst nie sehen würden. Kaufen Sie bitte das volle Video, und ich denke, dass Sie eine reichere Erfahrung haben werden!  -- Eugene Schwartz

[eschwartz1ster]

Yes, a "dry run" is the best that a video about eurythmy can provide, but at least it exposes people who would otherwise never see eurythmy to this remarkable art. Please buy the full video, and I think that you will have a richer experience!

[FlorianChristian]

Der Doktor hat gesagt Eurythmie kann man nicht Filmen

[marianella83]

Filmen kann man sie schon, nur den seelischen Ausdruck, die Wirkung kann man nicht auf Band festhalten!

[piano4film]

Good luck with your series.

Eurythmy is often missunderstood and not presented in the best light.

I posted a small sample of my work with eurythmy.

[eschwartz1ster]

Dear Ignes,

 Yes, eurythmy is strange -- and that is precisely why the DVD "Eurythmy: Making Movement Human," was created -- to explain what eurythmy is all about. Purchase the whole DVD and I guarantee that you will have a much fuller understanding of this challenging art form!

[Ingnes]

I have studied in Waldorf/Steiner school about 10 years but I still don´t understand eurythmy...it is so weird...

[gilraen690]

lol well it's my 11th year now, and what can I say, it really helps you become aware of other people around you, all that shit with awareness and feeling of a room and movement among others... blah :P
