    Hi Linda,

    This is Deedra Wright, a former early childhood educator, from the Rudolph Steiner School. I am now working in Sag Harbor at the Harbor Waldorf School although I still have an apartment in Manhattan and I’m here every other week.

    One of our homeschool families a woman by the name of Alexandra McLaughlin, is interested in therapeutic Eurythmy. I gave her this contact page so hopefully you’ll her from her soon.

    In the meantime, blessings on you and your day.

    Warmly,

    Deedra Wright
