A new summer, a new schedule, new ideas

I have not visited this blog in a long time - it's overdue for an update! I'm still trying to figure out how to make it look just right. Summer Courses at Rudolf Steiner College www.rudolfsteinercollege.edu have just finished for me. It has been an incredible experience once again, meeting hundreds of people: experienced working teachers and those who are still aspiring to become teachers; established musicians and those who are terrified of tapping into their musical side; people older than my parents and people barely older than my oldest child, all sharing the experience of discovering Waldorf Education. Soul-Healing can take place here in record time, laughter and tears sit really close together, enthusiastic energy and deep fatigue seem to be hopelessly entangled on a daily basis. Many new connections have been made and many inspired, hopeful plans discussed. This last month alone over 30 people have looked at my embarrassingly outdated blog page! I better pick up the slack.
The next couple of weeks are set aside for creating a new schedule for the coming school year, packing it as full as possible without losing valuable family time.
I am gearing up for another fun block with the waldorf-inspired home schooled children at www.wholisticlearningresources.net, planning another couple of group singing-lessons and teaching-aid courses for music in the classroom, scheduling mentoring and music support-visits with several Waldorf schools and reserving a limited number of time-slots for private lessons.
And of course, I am looking forward to another awesome season with the Sacramento Master Singers!
