Exploring the Roots of Waldorf Education
A workshop for nurturing a more human future
12–15 August 2024
“A need for imagination, a sense for truth and a feeling for responsibility—these are the three forces that constitute the nerves of pedagogy.”
What is Waldorf education about?
Who was Rudolf Steiner?
Why did he found the first Waldorf School?
What is Anthroposophy?
Join us for a four-day workshop exploring the heart of Waldorf education, its anthroposophic roots, and the works of Rudolf Steiner as they exist in our times. This workshop is for teachers new to Waldorf education, for parents, for alums, and for experienced teachers who want to reënliven their connection to Waldorf education.
Back to basics
Waldorf education and the anthroposophic pedagogy that informs it contain foundational ideas that radically changed education paradigms in the early twentieth century. Today, the conversation about education has become increasingly complicated, but the essential needs of children have not changed. Returning to the foundational ideas that birthed the first Waldorf school is an essential and urgently needed undertaking—join us in our exploration of what education could be and discover what is possible.
Whether a new teacher, a parent or guardian, an alum or an experienced teacher, we invite you to join us as we explore Waldorf Education.
We do encourage in-person participation as we believe it offers a richer experience and includes artistic activities. And we do understand that not everyone can be in-person or attend the full program, so we have provided an option to attend lectures online via Zoom.
Please note: There is a group discount for those attending in-person that are affiliated with a specific school who have at least three people attending from their school. Please see participation information below.
