**********
Eurythmy is a performance art, pedagogical tool, movement therapy, social art, spiritual practice. It harmoniously blends movement meditation, social yoga, social tai chi, sacred dance, sacred geometry, esoteric astrology, spatial and kinesthetic awareness, poetry appreciation, musical sensibility, to name just a few ingredients. Rudolf Steiner, who developed eurythmy in the 1910s and 1920s, created a rich set of tools that allow us to make speech and music visible through movement, to transform the inner activity into conscious harmonious movement.
Soulful Wizardess Marta Stemberger, MA, is a eurythmist, trained at Eurythmy Spring Valley, NY, with a background in modern dance. She holds a Certificate of Dance from Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, NYC, has studied at Martha Graham Dance Center, NYC, and with Bessie Schonberg, NYC. Marta has taught movement, performed, and lectured in Slovenia, Europe, and the U.S. since 1989. She actively performed eurythmy throughout her training (2008-2014), culminating in North-East and European tours. In Summer 2014, she was the stage manager for the four-day long series of Rudolf Steiner’s mystery dramas in Chestnut Ridge, NY, while performing three acting and two eurythmy roles. Currently, she works on two new solos and teaches public eurythmy courses in NYC.
“My first totally magical eurythmy class tonight thanks to the fantastic Marta. I’ve never felt so connected to a whole room of strangers before, and I thought I was a very approachable person. Thank you for today. Magical night. A bridge land. Eurythmy can only make you stronger.”
“It was amazing, I felt a connection. As if it was meant for me to attend. Yes, I want to be part of Marta’s events.”
“I truly enjoyed the Eurythmy Circle because it helped me to expand my consciousness on many levels. I benefited tremendously from learning and practicing the harmonious movements of the eurythmy dance because it helped to strengthen my balance, relieve a lot of tension in my muscles, and relax my body, but primarily my mind. Most importantly, I gained a great deal of spiritual awakening and a much deeper understanding of the spiritual world and my own innate connection to it. I was able to connect to the spiritual nature of the IAO and its Infinite Light and it helped me to realize my own potential in obtaining a better understanding to the spirit world on a whole. I learned a very important lesson that is helping and will assist me in the future, and that is to always ensure and remember to keep and stay grounded. It will allow me to focus and continue on with my mission on this earthly plane. I also learned that if I have faith, belief, and resilience, I can and will do anything that I never thought of as possible. Thank you, Marta, for you are of great importance to this world, and most importantly, you serve as a majestic inspiration to others.”
“Marta is a passionate, giving, kind soul, who centered me, calmed me that day with eurythmy moves. I was sneezing all day, and it stopped completely at her presentation. I used to watch eurythmy a lot—my daughter went to a Waldorf school—but actually doing it is a completely different experience.”
“I came to Marta’s class as a beginner, not knowing anything about this style of dance movement. Her passion and deep understanding of mind in motion is incredible. I never knew I could feel and move in such an easy but complex way. I believe it opened spaces for more creativity and joy in my life!”
“I participated in Marta’s Eurythmy circle, and was led by Marta’s lively and passionate attitude, which instantly drew me into the movement circle. We began with expanding and contracting circles into the center and out, and found it was a beautiful way to begin orienting to the room, and the others within the circle. We went on a journey by creating the star shape with our feet, and had lovely piano music to accompany us. Marta’s spontaneous sharings are refreshing to hear, and inspired inner stirring. We spoke about staying rooted in our families and past, as we look towards the future and go after our next task. I appreciate her rawness and authenticity in sharing what arose for herself during the class, which I found beautiful.
“I met Marta at a fabulous Match My Spirit event at the Edgar Cayce Center. I heard Marta give a talk and found her so fascinating that when she said she was giving a class, I decided to try it. It was different than what I expected. The one thing that struck me was how calm and content I felt after her class. It was fun and I left so relaxed. Look forward to next meeting and will let others know as well.”
“Eurythmy uses musical tones, poetry, astrology, and color; dancers move harmoniously and powerfully in intricate patterns. It’s as simple as it is complex, a mind expanding heartfelt experience that makes you connect. Marta’s passionate instructions carries you safely through. I was amazed how serene and invigorated I felt after moving in unity with everyone.”
