Waldorf Education for the Home & Play Groups… by Artbeat

Waldorf Education for the Home & Play Groups… by Artbeat

There has been a lovely response to the email about Artbeat classes on Anthroposophy & Child development & Creative Discipline & Play & Art and …….. whatever we can cover that is of interest along Waldorf / Anthrop lines.

The classes will be held on

Wednesday mornings 9am – 12.30 continuously throughout Sept & Oct.

then repeated on

Saturday Afternoons 2pm – 5.30pm continuously throughout Sept & October

Exact dates:  contact Linda (contact info below)

Room still for more to join!

The fee:  $50 per class (3.5 hours)
prepaid a week in advance of the date of the class (50% non-refundable for non-attendance).
or
$45 per class for prepayment of 4 classes (50% non-refundable for non-attendance)

One may attend any of the classes, either on Wednesday or Saturday, having booked at least a week in advance of each class date.

Attendance at a repeat class on Saturday is free if you have attended the previous Wednesday class on the same topic.

The format of the classes will generally be:

50% theory presentation by me (Linda) …. with comprehensive handouts..
and
50% questions arising & discussion

We will start off with a general ‘foundational’ outline of an Anthroposophical picture of the Human Being….then focus more upon ‘normative’ Child Development and Play/Art and so on into ‘Special Needs’….evolving according to the interests of the class members.

Prerequisites:
I will be assuming minimal ‘formal’ background knowledge of Steiner/Waldorf/Anthroposophy but we will work at the level of understanding of the members in each class.

If you miss the first 3 ‘Foundational Classes’ (on Anthroposophy and Child Development) there will be little time to go over the subject matter in later classes, but you are very welcome to attend later classes, knowing this.

Warm wishes,
Linda

    Gerard Wagner called a modern path of painting a “feeling training”.  With this in mind we will focus on painting exercises which challenge our ability to perceive and feel colour. 
 We will attempt to bring to consciousness the feelings which colours create in us.

       This workshop will focus on colour-balancing as a healing and educational tool through painting.
Motifs like Sun and Moon and the blossoming and withering forces in nature show
 a polarity of creative forces and colour moods which we will explore in watercolour painting.

The 3-fold Human Being - By: Boleslawa Habdank Wojewodzka

 

Caroline Chanter is a painter and teacher at the Goethanum Painting School in Dornach, Switzerland. Before leaving England to settle in Switzerland in 1993 she taught painting and painting therapy at Tobias School of Art and Therapy in East Grinstead, Sussex and was a painting therapist at the Anthroposophical Medical Practice in Forest Row, Sussex. She was a student of the painter Gerard Wagner from whom she learned the importance of Rudolf Steiner’s training sketches for a new approach to painting and to art therapy. These so-called “sketches” hold the key to the mystery of how form comes out of the colour.
