ECC Winter CourseThe 12 Constitutional Exercises of Eurythmy Therapy |
Fresh and Healthy through the Winter
The Secret of the Middle
Online course from 30 November 2025 to 7 February 2026
with Theodor Hundhammer, founder of Eurythmy4you
Find your centre and strengthen your life forces. This winter course will lead you through the twelve constitutional exercises of therapeutic eurythmy, which Rudolf Steiner gave to strengthen the rhythmic system and to unfold the etheric heart.
The exercises connect head, heart, and limbs, and cultivate calmness, warmth, breathing strength, resilience, and joy of life. Their movements are simple – their effectiveness arises from the inner activity with which you perform them.
- Breathe more freely, sleep more peacefully
- Strengthen your heart forces
- Support warmth and healthy circulation
- Relieve headaches – soothe the abdomen
- Find your own centre
We practise together and in small groups, exploring the physiological and soul-related backgrounds and discovering how movement can become a source of inner strength.
How the Course is Structured
Two parts – one path: During Advent, the course first leads inward – from conscious soul movement to inner experience – a journey into the abdominal space, the region of birth. Over the Holy Nights, we take a pause for individual reflection. In the new year, with the “rising sun”, the second part leads from within towards the forces of the heart – towards encounter, warmth, and inner peace.
How We Work
In this course, self-practice and shared exploration go hand in hand. Theodor explains the exercises, guides you in their execution and inner experience, and responds to your questions and observations. Between meetings, you continue practising on your own – or together with others in small groups via the ECC Forum.
- Weekly online meetings with Theodor
- Self-practice supported by written materials
- Replays available
- Forum and peer groups for exchange and deepening
This creates a living rhythm of learning – combining practice, reflection, and inspiring exchange.

For Philosophically Interested Participants
Rudolf Steiner describes the twelve constitutional exercises as
- working from the soul,
- working via the “detour” through the etheric body,
- working into the innermost parts of the organs.
In the course we will above all practise and make our own experiences. At the same time, we will discover how these statements are meant – and how you can bring them into practice in a completely natural way.
