Bothmer Gymnastics is a movement training program developed by Von Fritz Bothmer according to the indications given by Rudolf Steiner about child development. Starting from the question ‘What is true human movement? ‘Bothmer’s work was born out of observing the children move in their different stages of development.
The exercises trace the archetypal movement for each stage and is rooted in the belief that each child is a spiritual being in a physical body. The main aim of this curriculum is to help this spiritual being have a healthy incarnation into its chosen physical body.
Bothmer Intensive Training with Dan Freeman

Dan Freeman studied Bothmer Gymnastics under the direct tutilage of Frau Krauser, a pupil of the ‘father’ of Bothmer gymnastics Count Von Bothmer Since his graduation in 1977, for over 45 years, he has worked with adults and children throughout New Zealand and in countries such as Thailand, The Philippines, Hawaii, Germany, Taiwan, Australia and India.
He was the principal of Taikura Waldorf school in New Zealand, where he taught for over 24 years. Apart from Bothmer Gymnastics, he has studied rhythmic massage, speech, and eurythmy and is also a trained paramedic.
