“Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.” — Goethe
As the world becomes more complex, how can we find connection to the ground under our feet and the star of destiny that would guide us?
As our lives become more detached, how can we find connection to each other and a sense of purpose in our work?
Come and join us on this journey through anthroposophy together. It will call on your head, heart and hands. It will challenge and enliven you, and like all good journeys, it will leave you changed by the experience.
“For me, the course opened up a whole new way of learning. As a lawyer, I’m used to reading, analyzing, and writing. Suddenly, I found myself with clay under my fingernails, paint on my hands, and music in my head. Each week I learned something new, and honestly, what better gift can you give yourself than that?” Samil
