So today, in addition to the artistic side of eurythmy, you will also see something presented by children. This should be seen only as a sample of how eurythmy can work in a pedagogical-didactic way on the child. In all of this, however, I may ask for your forbearance again today, for the reason that it is meant very seriously that we ourselves are the strictest critics of these our beginnings, perhaps of the attempt of our beginnings in our eurythmic art and eurythmic didactics. They will need further training, perhaps even from others, because it takes a long time to develop, like other arts; but then this eurythmic art – anyone who seriously engages with it must have this prospect – will be able to stand in a dignified way alongside its older sister arts, which have had longer to influence people.
