The mission of the Waldorf Institute of Southern California is to guide and support current and prospective teachers of all backgrounds in preparation for Waldorf teaching that encompasses transformative experiences of artistic and teaching practice, collaborative work and developing an essential relationship to anthroposophy, the spiritual understanding and path that is the source of Waldorf education.

Our goal is to embody a living threefold model of Waldorf teacher education through a collaborative learning and working approach, and strong, diverse community relationships.
