"In Dalcroze Eurhythmics, virtually every musical concept is taught and experienced through movement of all parts of the body. This is a very effective way to enhance musicianship as well as improving co-ordination, concentration and other skills needed to be a good performer. This in turn increases confidence and the ability to feel music with the whole body, allowing development of auditory memory, communication, expression and creativity.
While the focus is on music, the benefits can be felt by all of the arts where movement plays a role – dance, acting, musical theatre, the circus - as well as enlivening our understanding of the plastic and static arts such as painting and sculpture."
