Introduction
On September 30th, 1993, I returned to Taiwan from New York City to set up a program for Dalcroze music education. As the first person from Taiwan who received the National Teacher’s License for children and adults, I felt responsible to make this wonderful approach to music education available in my country. Since then, I have done my best to carry out the following tasks:

The Taiwanese Dalcroze Journal
Under my supervision and editorship, the first issue of The Dalcroze Eurhythmics Monthly Journal appeared in April 1994. It continued uninterrupted for two years, followed, in 1999, by The Taiwanese Dalcroze Journal, which publishes reports and essays by our members on music composition, music appreciation, piano improvisation, lesson planning, workshop materials, seminars and translations of writings by Dalcroze masters. Beginning in 2006, the Journal was changed from paperback into CD-ROM format. The audience for this journal is not limited to our members. We also use it as a channel both to provide Taiwan’s music teachers with new teaching materials and to encourage them to pursue work in this discipline.

Eurhythmics Curriculum in the Music Department of the National Hsinchu University of Education, the Taipei Municipal University of Education and the Soochow University
Through our efforts, Dalcroze Eurhythmics courses have been established in several kindergartens, elementary schools and universities. The Music Department of National Hsinchu University of Education made Dalcroze Eurhythmics a required course for its music education students in 1994. In 1998, Dalcroze Eurhythmics was turned into an elective course for undergraduate studies (followed by the new regulations of the Ministry of Education), then respectively for graduate studies in 2006. The Music Education Departments of the Taipei University of Education made it an elective course in their undergraduate program from 1994 until 2006, and in their graduate program from 2006 until 2007. The Music Department of the Soochow University introduced Dalcroze Eurhythmics as an elective course in 2004.

International Dalcroze Workshops in Pittsburgh, Tokyo, Geneva, Taipei and Hellerau
In 1995, I had the pleasure of taking three students from Taiwan to the InternationalDalcroze Congress in Geneva, and, in 1997, five students to the International workshops in Pittsburgh. In both workshops, we met Dalcrozians from Europe, the United States, and Japan. We shared our personal experiences and helped each other develop new ways of creating a Dalcroze curriculum.

Acknowledgments
We would like to express our profound gratitude to the individuals who serve on our Board of Directors, Supervisors, Advisors and who have supported our organization despite great demands upon their time and energy.
