Bachelor of Arts
(Dance) in Eurythmy 

INTRODUCTION TO EURYTHMY

INTRODUCTION TO EURYTHMY

Eurythmy is a dynamic art form that seeks to express speech and music through movement. It has been described as dancing to the rhythms of life, exposing the human soul through the instrument of the body. This dynamic new “art of movement” seeks to make visible the sounds of speech and the elements of music.

 

In practice this art form teaches the awareness of being, and the fullest expression of body language. One could describe it as energy in motion, come to life through poetry, prose, drama and music. Eurythmy works on a deep level with our emotions. In this way it is not only a performance art but also an educational tool, and can also be used in therapy.

 

Graduates have the opportunity to further their careers in the classroom, on stage, in the field of business motivation, doing community work, as well as in a healing capacity. 

 

Training is a fully integrated Bachelor of Arts course in Music and Speech Eurythmy, based in the CCE’s Kairos* Eurythmy Department. As well as the movement aspect, modules include painting, choir work, music theory, and embrace philosophy, anatomy, history of arts and anthropology.

 

As well as formal training, the CCE offers workshops under the banner “Bring your Creative and Dynamic Self to Full Expression”. They are offered for all age groups, for people wishing to develop Individual and social skills.

 

* Kairos is an ancient Greek concept of time, a feminine spirit quite distinct from clock time, the masculine spirit Chronos. Kairos refers to the optimal use of time, or a passing instant.

Ingrid Salzmann

Ingrid Salzmann graduated (cum laude) in music (performance: voice) at the University of Stellenbosch. Early academic and performance successes included the winning of numbers of awards and scholarships and suggested that she would forge a career in either academia or singing. However, various life choices steered her in the direction of teaching and of Eurythmy accompaniment. She has taught both in public and Waldorf schools. Her private teaching (piano and voice) spans an age range of 6 – 75. She also performs at events, both as soloist as well as with the Hungarian Trio, a group of rogue orchestral musicians. Ingrid feels her most profound work-related passion is to be involved in the deepening of musical understanding and related skill development, as well as a concomitant development of consciousness. Besides her degree and Licentiates, she also has diplomas in various healing modalities, including hypno- and psychotherapy. Her greatest pleasures include language, acquisition of knowledge, seaside walks and light on the sea, at sunset.
