Starting in 1936 the authorities of the Third Reich began to severely curtail the practice of Eurythmy. Klink tried to save her school and travelled to Berlin to negotiate. She managed to come to an agreement that the training could continue, and "Eurythmie" was given a sub-category under the heading of dance. However, all performing of Eurythmy was banned and the diplomas issued had to be ratified by the Reichstheaterkammer. Unobtrusively, Klink ran courses for 40 students over the next six years. When, on 8 July 1941, her students had successfully completed their program and their diplomas, "decorated" with the required swastika, were returned on 2 August 1941, they were no longer of any value. Eurythmy had been forbidden and the school had to close.Eurythmie Lebenswege – 16 Biographien erzählen edited by Christine Lubczyk, Otanes Verlag Berlin (2007);
