From this you can already see that in eurythmy, the most important thing is that the developed, trained gesture is treated in a truly artistic way. Every movement must then be treated artistically. And this is what makes it a truly independent art form, an art of spatial movement, alongside the other arts. Of course, this art is still in its infancy today. However, it has great potential for development because it makes use of what one might call the most perfect human instrument, the human organism itself.
