Dalcroze UK

Who we are

Dalcroze UK exists to enable anyone and everyone to engage in musical learning, creativity, and expression, by promoting and delivering training in the Dalcroze Eurhythmics method.

Dalcroze UK is one of the UK’s oldest music charities. Founded in 1915, we have over 100 years’ experience in bringing out the full talent of professional musicians and dancers, giving music and dance teachers the tools to engage hard to reach groups, and supporting children with their physical, emotional and social development.

Dalcroze UK has over 100 members across the UK – practitioners, many of whom working at the highest levels, who are committed to developing and applying their Dalcroze practice.

Using the teaching and training methods developed by Emile Jaques-Dalcroze in the early 1900’s, today we bring the Dalcroze Eurhythmics method to life in the UK and internationally through classes and courses, training, research and publications.

The mission of Dalcroze UK is to nurture the legacy and teachings of Emil Jaques-Dalcroze by promoting the joy of music through movement. We design training programmes and create workshops for all, to develop an awareness and understanding of Dalcroze Eurhythmics.
