Eurythmy expresses a pedagogical, artistic and hygienic principle at the same time. A pedagogical principle in that when a person grows up with eurythmy, when they have been making movements in the sense of eurythmy from the first years of childhood, then they have carried out movements with their bodies that have such an effect that, I would like to say, the gods feel very close to the earth. Therefore, it is a very good way to establish the connection between the divine spiritual hierarchies and the growing child.
