Creative Speech in the Main Lessons is important for teachers who would like to enliven their performing skills and improve their knowledge of the diverse trove of literature underpinning the Steiner curriculum. Teachers will be introduced to the foundations of artistic speech distinguishing the epic, lyric and dramatic styles. Participants will gain practical experience in creative speech exercises, gestures and movement to help enliven their delivery of literary works introduced throughout five core main lessons covered in primary and early high school. Resources from writers such as Pablo Neruda, Blake, Yeats, Shakespeare and Walter de la Mare will be studied, among others.

Bothmer Gymnastics
|
|
| Movement permeates all other senses and needs to be nurtured, especially as our culture moves us toward an ever more sedentary and passive existence. Bothmer Gym is especially beneficial to children and adults whose senses and nervous systems are over-stimulated, as it allows us to reconnect to the rhythmic system and will in the limbs.
By learning Bothmer Gymnastics we gain the capacity and discipline of active stillness, an essential state for quality listening, inner preparation and gathering one’s resources. Through this practice of bodily movements we can experience the creative, spiritual forces of space working upon the body.

What Our Students Say
Testimonial from student, SA:
“I recently attended the April teaching seminar at the Sydney Rudolf Steiner College and completed both the Music and Artistic Development courses. I was honestly impressed with the calibre of the teachers. These courses were very much hands-on and I came away with many new and exciting resources to take back to the classroom. I feel enriched and inspired. I learnt techniques that were fresh and exciting along with a new delivery approach for my students. Thank you for your dedication to give us such an enlivened experience”.
