No. But is that the school that Jennifer Aniston went to briefly?

I am from Manhattan so I am a freak when it comes to celebrities and the schools they attended.Chat Icon I didn't say it was normal, though.

ETA: The Steiner school was the one she attended.

I know nothing about celebs! There's a Steiner school in Manhattan!

Waldorf/Steiner education is very unique (It's similar to Montessori, but different in many ways), so it's interesting to meet other people who have come from that background

No but Waldorf is VERY popular out here in CO. I couldn't do the ZERO screen time policy that Waldorf has.

What do you mean zero screen time?

I have a love/hate with Waldorf. I actually considered becoming a Waldorf educator. At the time it was hard for me because it was such a switch from what I was used to (gifted programs in NYC public schools), and I left to go to Stuyvesant, but my short time there really shaped who I am as a person

Eurythmy is a form of movement/dance taught at Waldorf schools:

Eurythmy is a movement art originated by Rudolf Steiner in the early 20th century. Primarily a performing art eurythmy is also used in therapy and taught to children for its pedagogical value (especially in Waldorf Schools).

There is tonal and speech eurythmy. It's very interesting

it's really hard to explain to someone who hasn't seen it or done it. There's some that is just like danicng to music, or in school we used movements to create characters and tell sotries, kind of like at a play, there are aos movements that og along with certain sounds, so you would use those to accent a poem recitation. There are also rods used to for various things. It's been over 10 years since I've done it, so it's even harder to explain..but it's just a really interesting art form.

You would not know what eurythmy is if you didn't go to a Waldorf or Steiner school!

Don't worry, it's freaky stuff!
