Speech Workouts

Multi-day intensive blocks of classes bring newer students together with those in our Full-Time Program. Each of these blocks opens a window into one focal element of speech, grounded in Rudolf Steiner’s exercises in articulation, breathing, fluency, and style, as well as the movement practices of eurythmy and Greek gymnastics.

We will use those exercises, in combination with poetic texts, to expand and explore our speech capacities. The movement art of eurythmy and the discipline of Greek gymnastics support speech work by building a healthy connection to the sounds and rhythms of language and by furthering the balanced relationship of the human being to the cosmos.

Upcoming Intensives


Voice, Gesture, Space: An Open Speech Class with Carley Horan

Saturdays, 10 a.m. to noon - A seven-week series beginning October 31 (no class on 11/28)

Discover the art of the spoken word in this two-hour, lively hands-on class. We'll start with the foundations of speech formation, freeing the breath and sharpening articulation, then explore through play how Spacial Dynamics and the Chekhov Technique bring speech to life with energy, presence, and movement.

Together we'll work on seasonal poems, both in groups and individually, with the chance to share our work at the Christmas Festival.

All are welcome. Come breathe, move, play, and speak!

Sliding scale suggested donation $70-$350 for all 7 classes.
